From the Paper:

"Her interest in geriatric nursing and nursing education became fused in a new and continuing fashion, after 1999 when Vaughan-Wrobel was asked to serve on the board of the Schmieding Center, which has the stated goal of devising innovative policy solutions with the aim of keeping older adults out of nursing homes. Vaughan-Wrobel has worked with the center to create formal standards and a community outreach structure to devise a network of professionally trained, paid, in-home caregivers to provide personal care and other non-medical services to older adults in the home."
