Abstract For several decades, the history of interdisciplinary education and the development of AGHE initiatives have been closely linked. The need to educate colleagues on methods and benefits of interdisciplinary/ interprofessional cooperation toward service and research of aging has never waned. In this presentation we (a) highlight how AGHE has performed as a potent incubator for progress in this area and (b) use a few examples to illustrate how notable resulting efforts have improved geriatric care. For example, early and significant infusion of federal funds for gerontology training programs supported multi-disciplinary university-based centers, the Veterans Health Administration created interprofessional geriatric training programs, foundations such as John A. Hartford and Josiah Macy founded team training and interprofessional education programs, and the Health Resources and Services Administration funded Geriatric Education Centers and Geriatric Workforce Enhancement Programs. Efforts to advance interdisciplinary/interprofessional education have been fruitful and AGHE’s role as an incubator continues to evolve.

Prison Populations

Postsecondary programs offering vocational training and college credit to eligible inmates have had difficulty finding a place in the U.S. correctional system. Politically motivated restrictions preventing inmates from receiving federal funds for college resulted in drastic program closures. Although new laws restored funding to select inmates, enrollment in postsecondary correctional education only recently reached pre-cutback levels (established in the late 1980s). This is set in contrast to the significant increases in U.S. prison populations and spending that have occurred since the early 1990s. Contextual issues specific to the correctional system and ideological conflicts between the prison educator and prison staff may further impair enrollment and program completion. Through review of the political and contextual issues influencing the modern design of postsecondary prison education, this work seeks to propose best practices that may support the unique learning needs of the adult learner in the correctional system.

Midwestern City

Consumer sources of OTC drug information were investigated by querying 250 residents in a large midwestern city with a mail questionnaire. Results from an analysis of 163 respondents (69.4 percent) indicated that the majority of these people use the physician and pharmacist equally for OTC drug information. Moreover, they perceive them equally reliable for information on these drugs. Other significant findings were: 1) television commercials rank third in use and seventh in reliability, 2) elder respondents and respondents without children use the physician and pharmacist less for OTC drug information than younger respondents and respondents with children in their households, and 3) approximately half the respondents purchase their OTC drugs in pharmacies. This study concludes because many pharmacists are being trained as drug advisors with federal funds, and because consumers use and perceive him reliable as an OTC drug advisor, that the FDA should inform consumers on OTC drug labels that the pharmacist is a reliable source of OTC drug information.

AbstractThe National Health Planning and Resources Development Act of 1974 requires each state to enact a certificate-of-need program in compliance with federal standards in order to remain eligible for continued receipt of federal funds for health resource development after 1980. This Note contends that the Act and related HEW regulations preclude states from exempting health care facilities’ research expenditures and education expenditures from the scope of the states’ certificate-of-need programs. The Note recommends that, as an alternative to such state exemptions, each state develop a streamlined certificate-of-need procedure that fulfills federal requirements while efficiently meeting the special needs of research and education projects.
