The American Academy of Nursing (AAN): Building Academic Geriatric Nursing Capacity

The AAN coordinates centers of excellence at five of the nation’s top schools of geriatric nursing, hastens the advancement of geriatric programs at seven additional “investment” schools, and funds pre- and post-doctoral, as well as MBA, scholars—the faculty and management leaders of the future. All of these efforts are designed to promote leadership, research, and best practice models that foster geriatric excellence throughout the nursing profession.
