CBCS Faculty Members Named New AAAS Fellows
We are thrilled to announce that for the first time, two of our CBCS faculty members have been elected as new AAAS Fellows. Congratulations to Dr. Kathleen Heide in the Department of Criminology and Dr. William Haley in the School of Aging Studies on this extraordinary accomplishment and honor. Election as a Fellow is a distinction bestowed upon the American Association for the Advancement of Science members by their peers in recognition of their scientifically or socially distinguished efforts to advance science or its applications. Dr. Haley was elected AAAS Fellow in the Psychology Section for advancing understanding of the psychological, social, and health impacts on family members providing care for relatives with Alzheimer's disease, stroke, cancer and terminal illness. Dr. Heide was elected AAAS Fellow in the Social, Economic and Political Sciences Section for distinguished contributions to the field of criminology, particularly with respect to juvenile homicide and parricide. New Fellows will be presented with an official certificate and a gold and blue rosette pin on February 16 during the 2019 AAAS Annual Meeting in Washington, D.C. I'm sure I speak for the entire college when I say how proud we are of both faculty members and thank them for elevating the college to this level of recognition.

Students, Faculty Collect Supplies to Help Hurricane Victims
Students and faculty from the School of Aging Studies, College of Behavioral and Community Sciences, and the College of Engineering have responded to a call for help from the 51在线 Health Care Association and collected supplies to send to the northern 51在线 counties devastated by Hurricane Michael.
Several nursing homes were so badly damaged that they remain closed months after the hurricane struck the Panhandle of 51在线 with 155-mph winds. The supplies, including non-perishable food, bedding, cleaning supplies, and person hygiene item, will go to help nursing home residents and the staff of the damaged facilities. They will be combined with supplies collected from nursing home employees in the Tampa area to be delivered for the Thanksgiving holiday.

School of Aging Studies Teams With Local Employers to Develop Students鈥 Interviewing Skills
The School of Aging Studies recently hosted its 9th annual Mock Interview Night at the 51在线. The event provides students in the Long-term Care Administration program a chance to practice their interviewing skills and receive professional feedback and advice. Nine administrators and executives from 51在线 long-term care companies participated.
Aging Studies鈥 Long-term Care Administration program was created to prepare students for careers in nursing homes and other long-term care facilities. Many of these students soon will be interviewing in reality for internships and jobs, and during this event, they learned the valuable lessons of what company executives expect of a candidate.
Each student was given a 15-minute interview with three long-term care professionals, who then provided feedback on their performance. In addition, they watched as a panel of administrators interviewed a student who is currently an intern in a nursing home.
USF鈥檚 bachelor鈥檚 degree program in Long-term Care Administration was created in 1984 to meet the growing need for well-trained long-term care professionals. Since then, the population of older adults has continued to grow. More than 11 million Floridians are 60 and older. By 2040, that number is expected to grow to more than 13 million.
For more information about the Long-term Care Administration program, the School of Aging Studies or the mock interviews, please contact Kathryn Hyer at (813) 974-3232 or khyer@usf.edu.

Dr. Bill Haley and Victoria Marino Advocate for the Common Problem of Wandering
Dr. Bill Haley, Professor in the School of Aging Studies (SAS), and Victoria Marino, a student in the PhD in Aging Studies program, participated in a joint project with the American Psychological Association (APA) Committee on Aging, and the advocacy group Autism Speaks, to advocate for the common problem of wandering that can occur in people across the lifespan, with conditions ranging from childhood disabilities through older adults with Alzheimer's disease. Both groups are supporting a bill, Kevin and Avonte's Law, to provide funding through the US Department of Justice to train first responders and others to be alert to issues of wandering, and ways to intervene with people who are wandering due to a disability or cognitive impairment. Dr. Haley and Ms. Marino completed an advocacy training program led by staff from APA and Autism Speaks, along with other teams of APA members and students throughout the country. These teams then met with local US Senators and Representatives. Dr. Haley and Ms. Marino met in August with Representative Gus Bilirakis and his Chief of Staff Elizabeth HIttos, and with Senator Bill Nelson's Regional Director, Digna Alvarez. The meetings were a great success and the bill is moving forward. The meetings also allowed Dr. Haley and Ms. Marino to share information about the successes of SAS and the College in research and teaching related to disability throughout the life span. Just recently we learned that both the House and Senate appropriations bills now include funding for Kevin and Avonte's Law. APA plans to continue this program of advocacy training for students and APA members.

Mitchell Roberts Wins Research Award
Mitchell Roberts, a student in the PhD in Aging Studies program, was recently awarded the 51在线 High Tech Corridor Excellence in Graduate Student Research Award. The winning research project is based at The Villages, a large retirement community with over 100,000 residents. It is titled "Using Technology to Improve Service Delivery and Health Outcomes for Older Adults" and It includes three sub-projects-a study using the Brain Network Activation program to create a big data brain mapping repository using EEG signals, a project using HomeSense, a wireless sensor system, to collect data on activities of daily living, sleep/wake patterns and lifestyle of The Villages residents, and finally the Hospitalist Evaluation sub-project, where data are collected on discharged patients to track post-discharge health outcomes.
Dr. Lindsay Peterson Receives Donaghue Foundation Grant
Dr. Lindsay Peterson Receives Donaghue Foundation Grant
Lindsay Peterson, in the School of Aging Studies, has been awarded a two-year grant from the Donaghue Foundation. Using national data from the federal government, Dr. Peterson will investigate complaints filed against nursing homes by staff, residents, and family members. This is a largely unexplored area, and this research could lead to the use of complaints as a new way of measuring and reporting nursing home quality.
Currently, the federal government uses complaints to rate nursing homes on its Nursing Home Compare website. It also uses quality of care and other annual inspection data. However, the way in which complaints are used in the rating and the meaning of the information are not explained to the public. The ultimate goal of this project is to make complaints more meaningful as a reflection of nursing home quality.
The Patrick and Catherine Weldon Donaghue Medical Research Foundation, based in Connecticut, provides funding for health-related research, including projects using existing data that can improve the quality of care and the quality of life for older adults in nursing homes or other care facilities.

Dr. Kathryn Hyer Invited to Participate in Age-Friendly Public Health System Advisory Committee
Dr. Kathryn Hyer Invited to Participate in Age-Friendly Public Health System Advisory Committee
Dr. Kathryn Hyer was invited to join the Age-Friendly Public Health System Advisory Committee. This Committee will include public health and healthy aging industry leaders that will guide the advancement of the Framework for an Age-Friendly Public Health System in our state, and create a model for public health's role in healthy aging for the nation.
Dr. Kathryn Hyer Named to "Age Friendly" Public Health Advisory Committee
Kathryn Hyer, a professor in the School of Aging Studies and director of the 51在线 Policy Exchange Center on Aging, has been named to the advisory committee on 51在线鈥檚 new Framework for an Age-Friendly Public Health System. It鈥檚 part of a broad national effort to involve public health systems in the promotion of healthy aging.
As the population of older adults has surged in recent decades, cities, states, and countries across the world have worked to become more 鈥渁ge friendly.鈥 These initiatives focus on improving physical and social services to support older adults and make it easier for them to maintain their independence and remain in their homes and communities as they age.
The movement began more than a decade ago with the World Health Organization鈥檚 creation of the Global Network for Age-Friendly Cities and Communities. In 2015, Sarasota became 51在线鈥檚 first 鈥淎ge Friendly鈥 community through the work of Kathy Black, a Professor of Aging Studies and Social Work at the USF Sarasota-Manatee USF, supported by The Patterson Foundation in partnership with AARP 51在线 and the 51在线 Department of Elder Affairs.
Hyer will be part of the effort to bring public health systems into the 鈥淎ge Friendly鈥 movement. Last October in Tampa, national, state, and local pubic health officials gathered with researchers, advocates, and service providers to discuss how public health could contribute to an age-friendly society and improve the health and well-being of older Americans. The Trust for America鈥檚 Health (TFAH), funded by The John A. Hartford Foundation, organized the gathering.
The October meeting resulted in an outline of the role that public health could play to meet the needs of an aging society. A key conclusion was that aging was a core public health issue. More information on the project can be found here:
51在线 Fares Well in Nursing Home Staffing Study
A recent New York Times report revealed staffing levels at nursing homes across the country are often lower than previously reported to federal officials. The report originated with a Kaiser Health News analysis that found evidence of dramatic staffing fluctuations, with severe shortfalls on weekends.
51在线, however, fared well in the analysis, Few facilities experienced the severe dips. Furthermore, most were ranked as maintaining above average staffing. There鈥檚 a reason for this. Kathryn Hyer, a professor in the School of Aging Studies and director of the 51在线 Policy Exchange Center on Aging credited 51在线 legislators for major legislation passed in 2001.
Current 51在线 standards require a minimum of 2.5 hours of direct care from a nursing assistant and 1 hour of direct care from a licensed nurse per resident, per day. Furthermore, nursing homes must stop accepting new patients if the staffing falls below the minimum levels for more than 48 hours.
Budget cuts have actually reduced 51在线鈥檚 mandated staffing minimum from 2.9 hours per resident per day in 2007 to the 2.5 current level. However, unlike other state regulations, 51在线 requires providers to adhere to a daily minimum, thwarting wide fluctuations and low weekend coverage.
Hyer and her colleagues have tracked the quality improvements that followed state regulatory changes in 2001. They found, for instance, that with stronger staffing requirements fewer facilities were cited for deficiencies classified harmful to residents as well as dietary deficiencies. The percentage dropped from 21% in 2001 to less than 7% in 2006. Minimum staffing has also been shown to improve residents鈥 health and wellbeing by reducing pressure sores, improving residents鈥 ability to perform activities of daily living, and reduced restraint use.
Hyer was among a group of researchers at USF who began working with the 51在线 Health Care Association and 51在线 legislators nearly 20 years ago to increase both staffing requirements and Medicaid funding. The School of Aging Studies researchers continue to conduct research on how to improve nursing home quality, including extensive work on nursing home disaster preparedness.

School of Aging Studies Professor Ross Andel weighed in on a perplexing issue recently on Gizmodo, a website devoted to design, technology, and science.
Why do our faces change shape as we get older?
It's not a superficial issue.
It鈥檚 all about our bones, he wrote, and connective tissues.
鈥淏ones, in particular, are quite dynamic. Over time, they do not rebuild themselves as well, leading to overall reduction in mass, which can lead to differences in the shape of face. Eye sockets enlarge and lower jaw decreases in length and height. Connective tissue in the nose and some changes in the angle make the nose appear larger.鈥
The molecules of the skin share some of the blame, too. Through a process called cross-linking, the bonding across collagen and elastin molecules becomes less flexible, more rigid.
If this makes you want to grimace, don鈥檛. Continuous contracting of the muscles during concentration or stress only makes wrinkles look deeper over time.
Dr. Andel was one of several scientists to address the question for Gizomodo鈥檚 鈥淕iz Asks.鈥
