Organizational context (eg, leadership) and facilitation (eg, coaching behaviors) are thought to interact and influence staff best practices in long-term care (LTC), including the management of delirium. Our objective was to assess if organizational context and facilitation —individually, and their interactions—were associated with delirium in LTC.

A Scoping Review of Dementia Interventions in Home-Based Primary Care
Home-based primary care (HBPC) provides interdisciplinary, longitudinal, comprehensive care at home to homebound older adults. The prevalence of dementia among HBPC recipients is approximately 50%. To date, little research has been performed to determine whether dementia-specific interventions have been conducted in HBPC or their efficacy. We performed a scoping review to assess the landscape of dementia interventions in HBPC. (Source: Journal of the American Medical Directors Association)

The Transformative Role of Large Language Models in Post-Acute and Long-Term Care
The landscape of post-acute and long-term care (PA-LTC) is evolving rapidly, with technology increasingly crucial in optimizing care delivery and improving patient outcomes. Large language models (LLMs), a groundbreaking form of artificial intelligence, are a specific subset of machine learning designed to understand and generate human language by enabling computers to convert language and unstructured text into machine-readable, organized data.1 LLMs represent a promising avenue for enhancing various aspects of PA-LTC across research, education, management, and clinical practice.
