ICONS & INNOVATORS WEBINAR

Various forms of research can be used to understand the impacts and outcomes of care and the environment where it is delivered. To evaluate outcomes in nursing homes, researchers studied care environments using PEAK, a state-based, pay-for-performance program that incentivizes person-centered care.

This webinar will highlight multiple methodological approaches and share how data-driven information has guided critical programmatic and design decisions. Presenters will share case study examples that definitively connects research to the resulting design of the environment of care. 
 


 

Learning Objectives

  • Learn about the unique structure of the PEAK person-centered care program and the methodological advantages of evaluating person-centered care.
  • Understand how multiple methods of collecting data can provide an assessment of critical outcomes in the design of person-centered care environments.
  • Learn how quantitative data can be viewed against qualitative data to develop a broader understanding of the total built environment in which care is given.
  • Describe how research can inform design decision-making.

Now she holds the official credentials of a gerontologist along with a long-term care administration and social work license. Laci’s experience has included direct leadership and clinical practice in an innovative person-centered care home, college instruction on aging, program leadership with the Kansas PEAK program and the KSU Center on Aging, and national long-term care advocacy and research. She currently serves as the interim Director of the KSU Center on Aging and PEAK program coordinator.
