STEADI Research

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is conducting two focus groups and a series of individual interviews with primary care providers (physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants) to better understand fall prevention among older adults. This is for the CDC’s STEADI Initiative. A flyer for our project is attached.

Interviews:

• Only 30 minutes
• Conducted over the phone
• Flexible scheduling
• Participants receive a $25 Amazon gift card

Focus Groups:

• Less than 90 minutes
• Include 6-8 primary care providers
• Will occur in the DC-area
• Meal is provided
• Participants receive $75 amazon gift card

Providers who are NOT eligible include:

• Providers who work exclusively in a hospital setting with inpatients
• Geriatricians who have completed a geriatrics fellowship
• Residents

We will be conducting interviews and the focus groups this month until January.
