Moving Forward Nursing Home Coalition, Phase II

Grant Summary

This grant will continue support for the Moving Forward Nursing Home Quality Coalition to advance actions with the greatest promise for impact and shortest timeline to improve nursing home resident quality of care and quality of life. The initiative will develop and test a certified nursing assistant training and apprenticeship program in partnership with federally funded Geriatrics Workforce Enhancement Program sites; engage nursing homes in quality improvement to better assess and act on residents’ goals, preferences and priorities; and scale a pilot-tested guide and process to strengthen resident councils. Established in response to the April 2022 National Academies report, The National Imperative to Improve Nursing Home Quality, the Moving Forward Coalition represents 1,600 volunteers, including national experts, residents, family members and direct-care workers.
