Abstract
Nurses Improving Care for Healthsystem Elders (NICHE), a program of NYU Rory Meyers College of Nursing, is a national quality and safety program that enhances clinical nursing in the care of older adults. Hospitals, long-term care, and hospice organizations adopt the NICHE practice model to advance professional practice, improve quality of care, and expand capacity to meet the growing demand for age-friendly care. In this month's column, I highlight three clinical improvement projects that were developed during the NICHE Leadership Training Program. These projects represent the range of nurse-led services and clinical interventions that are the foundation of the NICHE philosophy and practice model.
