This article uses a retrospective approach to critique the research base underlying the nursing home culture-change movement-an effort to radically transform the nation's nursing homes by delivering resident-directed care and empowering staff. The article traces the development of the movement from its inception 10 years ago to 2005, when the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services implemented its own initiative to support the movement, thus giving it new momentum, to the present day. This historical overview provides context for a proposed research agenda aimed at strengthening the movement's empirical base, thereby facilitating culture-change interventions as well as helping the movement navigate the next step in its evolution.

Advancing diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging within academic nursing.

The lack of diversity in professional nursing education curricula, practices, and policies is reflective of its colonialist history. Despite increasing calls for action and organizational position statements affirming the importance of advancing diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging, this deeply rooted history has led to embedded structural racism and other forms of bias that have remained rife in the discipline. The desire to maintain a status quo that ignores the institutional and structural effects of bias has even led some states to defund and disempower institutions historically charged with advancing knowledge and fostering inclusive education.

Objective: To explore the perspectives and experiences of perioperative staff when caring for older adult patients from ethnically diverse backgrounds.

Objectives: In this study, we examine how residents are affected by moving from a regular nursing home into an innovative living arrangement. In the past decade, a culture change has taken place, leading to rapid developments of innovative living arrangements that aim to change the physical, social, and organizational environment to better suit the needs of older adults needing 24-hour care. This has inevitably led to more group relocations in long-term care.
