  15. Results from the HGNI Evaluation Shoshanna Sofaer, Dr.P.H. School of Public Affairs Baruch College

  16. Evaluation Methods • Annual Web-based survey of all current and former Scholars and Fellows • We present here combined results from three years of surveying • We used data from the first or second round of surveys for people who did not respond to third round • Note however that response rates are very high – around 90 percent

  17. Expert geriatric nursing faculty • Of 106 program alumni who responded to our surveys: • 87, or 82.1%, are in a faculty position • 19 are tenured • 37 are in a tenure track position but not yet tenured • 31 are in non tenure track positions • An additional 17 hold a research position • Former fellows more likely to have a faculty position; more scholars join faculty after they complete their dissertations

  18. Educating nursing students in geriatric care • Awardees responding to our surveys report teaching courses with a majority of geriatric content to • 11,032 undergraduate nursing students • 3,774 master’s students • 261 doctoral students

  19. Educating nursing students in geriatric care • They also report formally mentoring, advising or giving research support related to geriatric topics to • 784 undergraduate nursing students • 1,079 master’s students • 257 doctoral students • 41 postdoctoral candidates

  20. Building the research base for evidence-based geriatric care • Survey respondents report producing • 1,133 publications (articles, book chapters) on care of older adults • Of which • 994 are peer-reviewed • 597 report empirical findings • 62 address research methods

  21. Building the research base for evidence-based geriatric care • They have also acquired a total of about $72 million in grant funding • $65 million with high relevance to the care of older adults • $7 million with some relevance

  22. Showing leadership • 106 BAGNC program alumni who responded to our survey reported holding these leadership positions after their award: • 56.6% served as an officer/chair of a board, advisory group, committee or task force • 45.3% have organized a symposium or conference • 30.2% have led a quality improvement effort • 26.4% have led a strategic planning effort • 14.2% have served as a director of a program or institute • 13.2% have been an editor of a journal or special issue of a journal

  24. Developing a Vision At the end of graduate study: Hurray, I’m a PhD!!! ??? … SO WHAT? At the end of the Post-doctoral Fellowship: A clear career vision as a researcher and leader

  25. Passion for Gerontological Nursing Research Increase knowledge and skills for evolving and transcending the doctoral study Assimilate multi-disciplinary knowledge Develop high quality research Work with inter-disciplinary partners Improve critical thinking and writing skills

  26. Vision as a Leader Learn from mentors who are role models Become a leader in inter-disciplinary work Develop skills to move toward a future leadership role

  27. Hilaire Thompson Accomplishments at All Levels: Career Impact Perspective from a former Scholar

  28. Rationale for Fellowship 5-14 CDC Report to Congress 1999; MMWR, March 2, 2007 / 56(08);167-170

  29. Outcomes of my Fagin Fellowship Knowledge and skills Geriatric competency Teaching and mentoring Research Funded program of research Leadership Expert panel membership Guideline development

  30. Jacqueline Dunbar-Jacob Accomplishments at All Levels: A Dean’s Perspective

  31. Kitty Buckwalter Accomplishments at All Levels: A Perspective on Distance Mentoring

  32. How BAGNC has advanced distance mentoring/nrsg. science Background and history: DM BAGNC creates structure and processes to facilitate high quality DM Application process/Selection committee: criteria to make it work: detailed plan/timeline/letter/evaluation Resources: website (res areas) LC

  33. Does Distance Mentoring (DM) Work? Recent study with mentees/colleagues* N= 69 nurses; 40% in gerontology Online survey of nurses mentored for research, leadership, teaching, practice Explore how DM met participant needs and provide guidance for future mentees *Distance Mentoring: An Online Survey of Benefits and Challenges, (Lach, Hertz, Pomeroy, Resnick & Buckwalter)

  34. Key Findings on Distance Mentoring Allowed mentoring and access to expertise and resources without relocation While participants wished for more time/interaction with the mentor, the mentoring for this group resulted in: 41 journal publications 12 books/chapters 31 grants Key suggestions: Determine mentee goals and develop plan Identify expectations of mentor and mentee Use multiple methods for interaction – use technology! Plan so time is used effectively Plan for some regular time on-site with the mentor Be flexible!

  35. Conclusions Distance mentoring has many benefits and works when well planned BAGNC has helped to foster a culture change in nursing and to create a strong national presence of expert geriatric academic nurses.
