Dr. Pablo's culminating project, Finding the Silver Lining: Integrating Behavioral Gerontology in Elderly Care Settings, introduces a new program by Symphony Behavioral Health Inc. aimed at enhancing healthcare outcomes and overall quality of life for elderly adults in geriatric care settings by integrating behavioral gerontology services into geriatric care settings. Elderly individuals in geriatric care settings often experience gaps in care that exacerbate symptoms of depression, anxiety, and cognitive decline, contributing to unsafe behaviors like combativeness, falling, and wandering. The integration of behavioral gerontology services seeks to comprehensively address the psychological, physiological, behavioral, and social needs of elderly patients by creating an environment that provides dignified support and autonomy. Dr. Pablo's project also includes training and consultation for caregivers, nurses, medical personnel, and healthcare administrators to equip them with the skills to support elderly individuals under their care, prevent compassion fatigue, and improve professional quality of life (pQOL). The overall goal of this project is to serve as a silver lining that improves the healthcare outcomes of elderly patients and the wellbeing of geriatric care providers, despite the multitude of challenges each group experiences.

Unfortunately, the high-risk population, which includes children below 200% of the federal poverty level, second-generation immigrants, and minority groups, is not consistently being referred for EI services. Children in poor communities lacking access to resources will have poor health outcomes later in life. The goal of Dr. Wright's project is to improve the quality of care for children from marginalized communities by addressing social determinants of health that impact childhood development.
