Novel Socially Assistive Robot For Alzheimer's And Dementia Home Care; Lived Experiences Of Families, Audrey V. Downs Jan 2026

Novel Socially Assistive Robot For Alzheimer's And Dementia Home Care; Lived Experiences Of Families, Audrey V. Downs

Honors Theses and Capstones

Informal caregivers for individuals with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD) typically experience high levels of subjective caregiver burden due to strenuous role demands, notably the need to provide frequent reminders and 24/7 monitoring to address care recipient cognitive decline. The purpose of this study was to understand the lived experiences of informal caregivers using a novel Socially Assistive Robot (SAR) to care for individuals with ADRD in a home setting and evaluate SAR impact on caregiver subjective burden. SARs are autonomous, interactive devices that can provide timed reminders and monitor home environments, potentially alleviating some caregiver role demands and …

Honors Theses and Capstones

Epichaperomes are long-lasting, stable assemblies of chaperones, co-chaperones, and associated factors that facilitate cell survival in maladaptive cellular states. Their inhibition has emerged as an attractive therapeutic strategy for the treatment of cancer and neurodegenerative diseases (Rodina et al., 2016). Epichaperomes are hallmarks of robust proliferation in cancer cell populations across many cancer types and are abundantly present in several stem cell varieties, including induced pluripotent stem cells, human embryonic kidney cells, and cancer stem cells (Kishinevsky et al., 2018).

The core protein of the eukaryotic heat shock protein machinery, Heat Shock Protein 90 (Hsp90), is a central chaperone that …

Increasing Colorectal Cancer Screening Rates At A Federally Qualified Health Center: A Quality Improvement Project, Kaeli H. Mcphee

DNP Scholarly Projects

Abstract 

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is on the rise and is currently the second leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States (Wender, 2022). CRC screening rates are below national goals, particularly among underserved populations. At Lowell Community Health Center (LCHC), only 41.9% of eligible adults were up to date with CRC screening as of 2024.

Purpose: This quality improvement project aimed to increase CRC screening rates among average-risk adults aged 45 to 75 by implementing a multifaceted, low-burden intervention targeting both provider and patient behaviors.

Methods: Guided by the Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) framework, the intervention included: (1) provider and …

Development Of An Educational Toolkit For Clinical Staff At Little Rivers Health Care To Guide Shared Decision Making For The Expanded Age Range Of The Hpv Vaccine, Maureen B. Boardman

DNP Scholarly Projects

BACKGROUND: The Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is the most common sexually transmitted infection (STI) in the United States (CDC, 2024). Unlike other common STI's, persistent infection with HPV increases the risk of cancer. A Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination was approved in the United States in 2006 for girls and women aged 9 to 26 and in 2009 it was approved for boys and men in this same age range. Despite 20 years of data on the efficacy and safety of the HPV vaccine, rates of completed HPV vaccine series remain low. In 2019 the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) expanded …

Decreasing Hospital Acquired Pressure Injuries Through A Multi-Intervention Approach: A Quality Improvement Project, Kendra D. Crawford Jan 2026

Decreasing Hospital Acquired Pressure Injuries Through A Multi-Intervention Approach: A Quality Improvement Project, Kendra D. Crawford

DNP Scholarly Projects

BACKGROUND: Hospital acquired pressure injuries (HAPIs) continue to plague hospitals across the country. HAPIs are an indication of the quality of care delivered by the hospital’s nursing workforce. These injuries are costly to organizations and can lead to increased length of stay (LOS). The development of a HAPI, depending on severity, is a reportable injury and is classified as patient harm. Patients who suffer from HAPIs can experience significant pain and at times, permanent disfigurement. This project’s focus is a community hospital that has seen a steady increase in HAPIs over the last 2 years. During 2025, 28% of the …

Methods: Two interventions were implemented in this quality improvement project. The first was an assessment of a modification in nursing leadership organizational structure that was made in 2024 with the purpose of improving succession planning. This evaluation was completed with the use of …


Enhancing Psychiatric Education And Training For Family Nurse Practitioners In Rural Health Settings, Jared Sanders Jan 2026

Enhancing Psychiatric Education And Training For Family Nurse Practitioners In Rural Health Settings, Jared Sanders

DNP Scholarly Projects

Abstract

Title: Enhancing Psychiatric Education and Training for Family Nurse Practitioners in Rural Health Settings

Background: Mental health conditions represent a significant and growing proportion of primary care encounters, particularly in rural and underserved regions where psychiatric specialist access remains critically limited. In these settings, Family Nurse Practitioners (FNPs) frequently serve as the sole point of contact for patients presenting with mental health concerns, often without the benefit of embedded behavioral health support or readily available consultation. Despite carrying this clinical responsibility, many FNPs report gaps in formal psychiatric training, particularly in psychopharmacology and diagnostic differentiation, that contribute to variability …

DNP Scholarly Projects

Background: Chronic absenteeism and school avoidance are a problem facing schools across the nation following the COVID-19 pandemic.

Purpose: This quality improvement project aimed to decrease absences by 50% over a 6-week timeframe when compared to the same timeframe from the previous year. Methods: Utilizing a Plan-Do-Study-Act framework, an intervention based on tracking multi-day consecutive absences and reaching out to families to provide education and support was implemented.

Improving Confidence In Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists In Providing Care For Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacements, Justin Alley

DNP Scholarly Projects

Abstract

Title: Improving Confidence in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists in Providing Care for Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacements (TAVR)

Background: Anesthesia staffing for complex, high-risk procedures like Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacements (TAVR) is challenging due to a national shortage of anesthesia providers and the company's heavy reliance on non-permanent (locum tenens and 1099) Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNAs). At this TAVR procedure location, 70% of the team is comprised of non-permanent staff. A lack of specialized training and experience in TAVR procedures led to a decrease in provider confidence and staffing shortages for these critical cases.

Purpose: The primary …

Retention Time Of Microplastics In The Purple Sea Urchin (Arbacia Punctulata), Alexandra Shore Jan 2026

Retention Time Of Microplastics In The Purple Sea Urchin (Arbacia Punctulata), Alexandra Shore

Honors Theses and Capstones

Marine ecosystems around the world are facing the problem of plastic pollution. Large pieces of plastic eventually degrade into smaller microplastics that are suspended in the water column and sink to the seabed. Sea urchins are exposed to microplastics as they graze on the sea floor and can accidentally consume these pollutants. Sea urchins are ecologically important animals because they physically alter their ecosystem via grazing and are integral part of marine food webs. To better understand how sea urchins interact with microplastics, purple sea urchins were exposed to microfibers and microspheres in a laboratory setting, and the retention time …
