The Geriatric Mental Health Training Series
(GMHTS) was developed and evaluated between 1989 and 1994
with funds from the Division of Nursing, Bureau of Health
Professions, Department of Health and Human Services, under
the leadership of Kathleen C. Buckwalter, PhD, RN, FAAN,
Principal Investigator and current Co-Director of the HCGNE
and Marianne Smith, MS, ARNP, pre-doctoral scholar of the
HCGNE. The GMHTS was awarded Book of the Year by the American
Journal of Nursing in 1993, was honored with the Best Practice
Award from the National Institute on Human Resources and
Aging in 1994, and received Sigma Theta Tau's Regional Research
Dissemination Award in 1994 and their International Research
Dissemination Award in 1995.
This highly acclaimed training program
is provided in a revised and updated format under the leadership
of the HCGNE. Training materials are adapted for broad dissemination
and use, and provided at no cost to users. Additional information
