Background
Established in
1993 by the Visiting Nurse Service of New York, the Center for Home
Care Policy and Research has become recognized as the pre-eminent
research center for home care and is the only of its kind in the
nation. The staff
includes a team of Ph.D.-level researchers trained in health services,
aging, and policy research and a complement of master’s-level
graduates in public health, social work, computer sciences, and related
fields.
Members of the
staff have
held appointments at the Harvard University School of Public Health;
the John F. Kennedy School of Government; the Agency for Health Care
Policy and Research; the Columbia University Mailman School of Public
Health; Weill Medical College of Cornell University and Hofstra
University. Articles written by staff members appear in peer-reviewed
journals, and our staff members make regular presentations at national
professional meetings and conferences.
The Research
Center’s reputation for excellence has enabled it to attract
major grants from private philanthropies and government sources.
