“We are confident that this excellent group of individuals will help us fulfill our missions of building ... leadership in the field... The U.S. health care system serves a large and growing population of older adults. Today older adults represent the majority of primary care visits, home care visits, hospital admissions and long term care residents. Coupled with a well documented nursing shortage, the quality of care for these individuals faces an unequivocal and unacceptable threat."
