Abstract

In the present health care environment, the provision of quality care for the elderly depends on collaboration between hospitals and nursing homes. Nathan Miller Center for Nursing Care, Inc, a skilled nursing facility in White Plains, New York, and Montefiore Medical Center, a tertiary care hospital in Bronx, New York, developed a variety of joint educational programs in geriatrics for their staffs and for the local medical community. These programs not only helped improve patient care directly in such areas as development of care plans but also led to joint projects for research on geriatric care issues.
