N2 - The rising prevalence of Alzheimer's disease and Alzheimer's disease-related dementias has led to renewed public discourse and policy changes in response to the care needs of persons living with dementia and their care partners. Comprehensive dementia care models are central to many recent policy initiatives, most notably the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Guiding an Improved Dementia Experience model. Gerontological nursing research is uniquely positioned to design and lead research investigating the effectiveness of these initiatives, as well as the dissemination and scaling of existing comprehensive dementia care models. The current Annual State of the Science Review provides an overview of the current state of comprehensive dementia care models in the United States and relevant policies. Challenges and opportunities for nursing education, research, and implementation across the translational research continuum are also outlined. [Research in Gerontological Nursing, 18(1), 7-16.].
