In describing an early training program of the Gerontological Manpower Project, we have attempted to demonstrate that short-term, on-site training with a frim theoretical and empirical base, can be an effective vehicle for translating research into application. In this case, research and theory based on the importance of the environment as therapeutic, and directed to maximizing geriatric patient independence was incorporated into a geriatric training programmthis was delivered to personnel working with the elderly in two institutional settings, differing in geriatric patient population and service orientation. To improve the effectiveness of future training programs, extensive evaluative research was included in the training processes. Although results were predictably tentative, they did yield much useful information both for subsequent program design as well as reinforcing a need for this process itself. Finally, a very satisfying and beneficial result of this project, as specified by the research staff and all participants, is that effective application of research results via appropriate training mechanisms are easily within reach of the nurse-practioner, and the oft-desired bridge between academia and the service delivery system is truly a collaborative reality.
