Becoming part of the plan to help conquer Alzheimer's disease: the national Alzheimer's project act.
Alzheimer's disease presents one of the largest challenges facing the aging population. The National Alzheimer's Project Act (NAPA) led to a national plan to engage health care team members in addressing this challenge. As nurse clinicians, educators, and researchers review the NAPA and resultant national plan, they can gain further direction in enhancing or expanding their roles to help stem the devastation of Alzheimer's disease.
