The Center for Aging and Health at UNC is a national leader in Geriatric medicine. Through the Center for Aging and Health the Carolina Geriatric Workforce Enhancement Program (CGWEP) seeks to improve the health of older adults through the education of healthcare professionals. Since 2015, the CGWEP has developed and promoted effective approaches to the care of older adults in their communities, including those in rural and underserved areas. Under the leadership of the Center for Aging and Health, the CGWEP is a collaborative effort of 9 regional Area Health Education Centers (AHECs) and the UNC Schools of Medicine, Nursing, Dentistry, Pharmacy, Social Work, and Public Health. The consortium fulfills the significant training needs across the state through curriculum development and dissemination, site development, faculty development, fellowship post-doctoral training, clinical training, and continuing education. More recently, the Health Resources and Services Administration has emphasized a focus on organizational change and interprofessional education and practice. This position is responsible for implementing programs and leading organizational change at multiple primary care practices across the state along with conducting root cause analyses to improve uptake and implementation. Similarly, the project also requires that we build educational and training programs with interprofessional skills as the foundation. Finally, this role also involves creating and maintaining partnerships and engaging with key stakeholders across multiple organizations to ensure program sustainability.
