GSA Section Podcast: Who’s (Not) in the House?

A staffing crisis in long-term care has created challenges for residents, caregivers, and direct care workers. Despite the decreasing number of cases of COVID-19, interest in long-term care employment continues to dwindle. This staffing crisis, which resulted from the COVID-19 pandemic, has become a chronic problem. This podcast episode will feature the work and insights of GSA members Katherine McGilton, PhD, RN, FAAN, FGSA, and Barbara Bowers, PhD, RN, FAAN, FGSA. Dr. McGilton’s research focus is on the care of persons with cognitive impairment, particularly in identifying interventions and models of care delivery that lead to effective patient outcomes. She also has experience in outcome measure development and has published on various aspects of intervention and outcomes in dementia care, rehabilitation care, and long-term care. Dr. Bowers has conducted research with frail, older adults to examine how nursing staff and long-term care systems impact quality of life and quality of care. She has worked with state and federal government bodies to develop, implement, and evaluate public policies affecting older adults.

Guests: Barbara Bowers PhD, RN, FAAN, FGSA, Professor Emerita, School of Nursing, University of Wisconsin–Madison; and Katherine McGilton, PhD, RN, FAAN, FGSA, Senior Scientist, Toronto Rehabilitation Institute–University Health Network, Scientist, KITE Research Institute at University Health Network, and Professor, Lawrence S.
