Description
Another Look is The Donaghue Foundation’s program supporting health-related research with near-term potential to improve health, well-being, and the quality and equity of care for adults aged 65 and older. It welcomes work across institutional, residential, home-based, and community-based settings, including nursing homes, assisted living, memory care, family-supported home care, and Programs of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE).
The program connects analysis of existing datasets with practical improvements in care. Stakeholders help define research questions and protocols or develop products such as infographics, toolkits, and training materials that support use of the findings. Some new data collection is permitted when it enhances the usefulness of project outcomes. Research must address the risk of inadvertently masking or worsening racial, ethnic, or gender health inequities.
