Miami University received a $144,500 Project Grant from the National Institute on Aging (NIA) under the Aging Research program (CFDA 93.866), awarded June 15, 2026, with a completion date of May 30, 2028. The award supports research examining the impact of caregiver involvement in older adult healthcare visits to identify opportunities for targeted clinical interventions. The project leverages nationally representative data to investigate social factors influencing caregiver inclusion in clinical appointments and to identify which caregiver involvement approaches yield optimal health outcomes for older adults. The research team will employ an interdisciplinary, person-centered analytic approach to conduct Stage 0 activities under the NIH Stage Model. The project deliverables include a thorough characterization of social characteristics contributing to caregiver attendance at clinical appointments and identification of caregiver inclusion approaches associated with favorable older adult health trajectories. This research addresses a critical gap in knowledge regarding barriers to caregiver involvement in care planning—such as clinician time constraints and uncertainty about best practices—with findings intended to improve communication, health management, and patient outcomes through enhanced caregiver participation in healthcare delivery.Federal Grant Award Summary
