Emergency departments seek to transform Alzheimer’s and dementia care through $55M national research grant

Research led by Manish Shah, MD, MPH, is part of a national effort to improve health outcomes for people living with dementia by investigating multiple strategies for advancing health care delivery during and after visits to an emergency department. Through a $55 million NIH-funded grant, researchers will implement a large nationwide trial that will provide insight as to how standard of care interventions found to be beneficial in smaller, single-site trials may be effective in more diverse settings.
