Description:
This session will synthesize the latest research findings from two clinical-academic collaborations that have leveraged real-time clinical data to answer a number of questions related to COVID-19 in nursing homes. The presenters have published on a wide array of topics including facility-level predictors of an outbreak, asymptomatic infection, mortality risk, longitudinal mortality trends, vaccine effectiveness, vaccine safety, vaccine acceptance, vaccine-induced immunity, and more topics. The teams are now focused on work related to the durability of vaccine-induced immunity among nursing home residents, the long-term effects of COVID-19, and medication management. 

Learning Objectives:

  • Present the latest empirical evidence related to COVID-19 management and outcomes in nursing homes.
  • Identify areas of need for future research.
  • opportunities for participants to engage in similar research collaborations.
