Hendrich Charitable Fund, in memory of Jim W. Hendrich.</p> <p>As The DAISY Foundation delves into how it can serve the advancement of equitable delivery of healthcare, our attention is drawn to our aging population and the need to improve care and promote healthy aging of older adults. </p> <p>Each day, more than 10,000 citizens in the United States reach their 65th birthday, signaling the need for care that is both sensitive and specific to changes that may occur with the aging process. Ageism appears in many ways from the simple to the complex. Some examples include the assumption that a health concern of an older adult is simply related to “old age;” that instructions must be simplified, and you must speak louder; and that any mental change during an acute care hospitalization is simply “confusion of old age” or that “old people will just fall no matter what.” A cognitive change in a hospitalized older adult can have multiple causes. Specifically, mentation changes can be an early, serious warning sign of an entire spectrum of modifiable risks such as medication side effects, dehydration, and sepsis. If ageism bias is present and early sepsis goes undetected, it can result in a preventable death. Sensitivity to age as a health disparity goes beyond these examples. Nurses can make a difference in mitigating age bias and stigma.</p> <h6><strong>-<a class="scroll-to" href="#goals">Program Goals</a></strong></h6> <h6><strong>-<a class="scroll-to" href="#guidelines">General Guidelines and Requirements</a></strong></h6> <h6><strong>-<a class="scroll-to" href="#funding">What is Funded</a></strong></h6> <h6><strong>-</strong><a href="#Application">Letter of Intent and Applications</a></h6> <h6><strong>-<a class="scroll-to" href="#Reports">If Your Grant is Funded- Required Reports</a></strong></h6> <h6><strong>-<a class="scroll-to" href="#Publishing">Publishing Your Work</a></strong></h6> <h6><strong>-<a class="scroll-to" href="#Doll">Lynne Doll Grant</a></strong></h6> <h6><strong>-<a class="scroll-to" href="#panel">Grant Panel</a></strong></h6> <h6><strong><a href="https://dcu001bswmooj.cloudfront.net/s3fs-public/inline-images/Grants%20Flyer-1.pdf" data-type="URL" data-id="https://dcu001bswmooj.cloudfront.net/s3fs-public/inline-images/Grants%20Flyer-1.pdf">-Download a Grants Flyer to Share with Staff</a></strong></h6> <h5> </h5> <h5 id="goals"><strong>Program Goals</strong></h5> <p>To support nurses who aim to improve care of older adults, DAISY, in partnership with the Ann L Hendrich Charitable Fund, offers grants to fund research and EBP that:</p> <ul><li>may reduce ageism and the associated clinical and psychosocial risks</li><li>identify changes in practice behaviors or improvements to existing or new standards of care that deliver equitable care, regardless of age</li><li>develop and measure the impact of educational and experiential case studies that teach sensitivity toward commonly held negative age biases and/or build cultural awareness to reduce or eliminate them</li></ul> <h5 id="guidelines"><strong>General Guidelines and Requirements for Research Grants and EBPs</strong></h5> <p>DAISY’s grants encourage registered nurses from all levels of experience to engage in research and EBP projects that will affect the health outcomes of patients and families. For this grant program, we will support investigators who are committed to compassionate, inclusive care and are passionate about making a difference for older adults.</p> <p>Research or EBP projects make take place in any healthcare setting. They should be directed toward ensuring that care, regardless of age, is equitable, evidence-based, and appropriate. Emphasis should be on older adult clinical and psychosocial risks related to healthy aging, risk factor reduction, and illness. Some of the most common conditions for the older adult include delirium, sepsis, nutritional deficits, skin integrity, potentially inappropriate medication usage (Beer’s Criteria), pneumonia, depression and isolation, urinary tract infections, dehydration, ineffective planning for transitions in care, and deconditioning during an acute illness or a hospitalization.</p> <p>Early nursing recognition of these conditions with evidence-based and person-centered interventions can improve the quality of care, reduce mortality and morbidity, assist in the diagnosis of the underlying cause(s), and preserve health status and independence. </p> <p>Following are a few examples of research studies or EBP projects that meet our guidelines.  These are meant for illustration purposes only – not as definitions of what interests us. (What interests us is what interests you!)</p> <ul><li>The introduction, testing, and/or adoption of existing evidence-based, standardized tool(s) into your institution’s standards for older adult care. These tools establish a baseline for various conditions such as delirium or depression. These tools will serve as a diagnostic comparison to monitor changes for early diagnosis and evidence-based interventions for one or more of the common conditions affecting older adults.</li><li>Qualitative research to capture and document “what matters most” to older adults and their personal goals of care when possible that may be incorporated into clinical rounds, the electronic health record, and care planning.</li><li>EBP projects measure the effect of nurses and the healthcare team who collaborate on the integration of fall risk assessment as part of the overall holistic assessment and problem list for each person/patient.</li></ul> <p>Grantees, whether working in a healthcare facility or academic setting must be connected to a clinical or community healthcare setting. </p> <p>As with all our research/EBP grants, it is imperative that nurses who provide direct care play a meaningful role in your study or project in its conceptualization, implementation, data collection, data analysis, and dissemination of results. The application requires a description of the role these nurses will have in your work to ensure that this program is enhancing the research or EBP implementation experience of nurses who have direct contact with patients and families.</p> <p><strong>Types of Research Studies or Evidence-Based Projects</strong></p> <p> <strong>Evidence-based Practice (EBP)</strong>: </p> <p>Evidence-based Practice (EBP) grants will be awarded to stimulate the use of patient-focused data and/or previously generated research findings to develop, implement and evaluate changes in nursing practice in the treatment of patients affected by social determinants of health. We encourage nurses who have research/EBP experience as well as those who do not to apply.</p> <p>Funds for Evidence-Based Practice projects may be awarded for new projects, projects in progress, and projects required for an academic degree as long as all other project criteria are met.</p> <p>Eligible projects may include research utilization or evidence-based practice projects, performance improvement initiatives that are based on evidence, or outcomes evaluation projects.</p> <p>Interdisciplinary and collaborative projects are encouraged and may involve interdisciplinary teams, multiple nursing units, home health, sub-acute and transitional care, other institutions, or community agencies. The team must be nurse-led. An implementation plan is needed to promote adoption of the evidence-based intervention by the clinical team.</p> <p>We will not fund tool development as part of EBP projects.<br> <br> You will be asked which EBP process model your study will follow. Which one is your choice (e.g. Iowa Model, Johns Hopkins Model, or another used in your organization), but please assure us that a systematic and disciplined process to evaluate the outcomes of your initiative will be in place to structure your work. We are especially interested in your process and outcomes indicators/measures.</p> <p>In all cases including DNP projects, your application must demonstrate how clinical nurses will play an integral role in project work.</p> <p><strong>The Research Grant</strong></p> <p>The Principal Investigator (PI) must be a nurse or formally affiliated with a clinical or community health setting, and they may be faculty in an academic setting.</p> <p>Funds may be awarded for new projects, projects in progress, and projects required for an academic degree as long as all other project criteria are met.</p> <p>We encourage you to identify a Mentor, especially if you are less experienced in applying for a research grant. If you desire a Mentor and are unable to find one, The DAISY Foundation will provide time-limited mentor support.</p> <p>With both EBP and Research grants, we will fund only direct expenses. We will not pay for institution overhead, fees to institutional review boards, Applicants' time, etc.</p> <p><strong>Eligible Applicants</strong></p> <p>DAISY’s grants encourage registered nurses from all levels of experience to engage in research and EBP projects that will affect the health outcomes of patients and families. For this grant program, we will support investigators who are committed to compassionate, inclusive care and are passionate about making a difference for their target population. The application asks you to explain why this work is important to you. Grantees, whether working in a healthcare facility or academic setting must be connected to a clinical or community healthcare setting.</p> <p>For all work, it is imperative that nurses who provide direct care play a meaningful role in your study or project in its conceptualization, implementation, data collection, data analysis, and dissemination of results. The application requires a description of the role these nurses will have in your work to ensure that this program is enhancing the research or EBP implementation experience of nurses who have direct contact with patients and families.</p> <p>The Project Leader/Team Leader must be a nurse who is currently employed or formally affiliated with a clinical or community health setting, and they may be faculty in an academic setting.</p> <p>A Project Mentor is strongly recommended for each grant application. We encourage Applicants to find a Mentor in your institution, nearby school of nursing, or community.</p> <p>Mentors will provide the following benefits which will be especially helpful for less experienced Applicants:</p> <ul><li>Help potential DAISY Grant Applicants become familiar with resources and problem-solve grant issues or concerns</li><li>Advise and refer Applicants to appropriate internal and external resources</li><li>Establish availability by phone or email to Applicants</li><li>Review the grant application and provide feedback/guidance as needed</li></ul> <p>Your Mentor should be an established Advanced Practice Nurse who provides support in the development and submission of an evidence-based practice grant. Mentors will assist Applicants in the development of the grant application, serving as a coach and advisor to the Mentee throughout the project.</p> <p>Before you submit your application, please be sure your project is ready to implement as soon as you receive IRB approval or exemption and grant funding. All tools need to be in place with permission for you to use them.</p> <p>We want you to be successful, so please read the notes on the application carefully as they will guide you to writing a successful application.</p> <p><strong>Additional Requirements</strong></p> <p>We seek studies and projects that may be transferable to other organizations and practitioners once they are completed. Applicants should be ready to implement their projects immediately following funding from The DAISY Foundation. Our application requires you to provide evidence of permission to use any tools you propose, so there is no delay in commencing the work.</p> <p>Only research and EBP projects approved by your institutional review board (IRB) or that have been exempted in writing by your IRB will be funded. A copy of your IRB approval on IRB letterhead with an appropriate signature will be required prior to our funding your grant.  If you do not have IRB approval yet, that is not a problem. You may apply for a grant while IRB approval is pending. Just know we will not actually fund without written IRB approval.</p> <p>The timeline you submit for your study or project should plan for completion of your work within 1 year of its start.</p> <p>Grant payment will only be issued to your institution or a specified fund at your institution, not to an individual investigator.</p> <p><strong>Research studies: Up to $10,000</strong></p> <p><strong>EBP projects: Up to $2,500</strong></p> <h5> </h5> <h5 id="funding"><strong>What We Will Fund</strong></h5> <figure class="wp-block-table"><table><tbody><tr><td> <p><strong>What We May Fund</strong></p> </td><td> <p><strong>What We Will Not Fund</strong></p> </td></tr><tr><td> <ul> <li> <p>Small equipment (such as recording devices)</p> </li> </ul> </td><td> <ul> <li> <p>Laptop computers and tablets such as iPads</p> </li> </ul> </td></tr><tr><td> <ul> <li> <p>Software, excluding SPSS and other statistical packages</p> </li> </ul> </td><td> <ul> <li> <p>Institutional overhead</p> </li> </ul> </td></tr><tr><td> <ul> <li> <p>Supplies </p> </li> </ul> </td><td> <ul> <li> <p>CITI training</p> </li> </ul> </td></tr><tr><td> <ul> <li> <p>Printed materials for study</p> </li> </ul> </td><td> <ul> <li> <p>IRB review costs</p> </li> </ul> </td></tr><tr><td> <ul> <li> <p>Buy-out of clinical/staff nurses' time so they may participate as members of the study team</p> </li> </ul> </td><td> <ul> <li> <p>Compensation for:</p> <ul> <li>Research Assistant time (includes hiring students)</li> <li>Mentor time</li> <li>Investigator time</li> <li>Fringe benefits</li> <li>Staff nurses' time when they are subjects of the study</li> <li>Faculty compensation (except in a limited role as a consultant on a unique aspect of the study</li> </ul> </li> </ul> </td></tr><tr><td> <ul> <li> <p>Data entry time</p> </li> </ul> </td><td> <ul> <li> <p>Any costs related to dissemination of findings.
