Delivering Long-Term Services to Ohio Elders: Good Progress, but Challenges Await

This study describes the changes in Ohio's approach to delivering long-term services that have occurred in the last 20 years

What is the initiation step of the Grubbs-Hoveyda olefin metathesis catalyst?

Density function theory calculations reveal that the Grubbs-Hoveyda olefin metathesis pre-catalyst is activated by the formation of a complex in which the incoming alkene substrate and outgoing alkoxy ligand are both clearly associated with the ruthenium centre. The computed energies for reaction are in good agreement with the experimental values, reported here

Common Sense for Caring Organizations: Results from a Study of High-Performing Home Care Agencies and Nursing Homes

This study reports on results of a qualitative study of 21 high-performing Ohio nursing homes and home care agencies. The study focused on best practices for managing their direct care workforce to achieve high performance. The report includes the most prevalent practice themes as well as tips and management strategies

Coming of Age: Tracking the Progress and Challenges of Delivering Long-Term Services and Supports in Ohio

In sixteen years of tracking utilization trends for institutional and home-and community-based services and supports, we learned that Ohio has made considerable changes in its approach to delivering and funding long-term care. For example, in 2009 more than four in ten older people on Medicaid received services in a non-institutional setting

Coming of Age: Tracking the Progress and Challenges of Delivering Long-Term Services and Supports in Ohio

In a 16 year tracking of utilization trends for institutional and home and community-based services, we learned that Ohio has made considerable change in its approach to delivering and funding long-term care services. The main finding revealed that now more than four in ten older people with severe disability on Medicaid received assistance in a non-institutional setting. This research brief summarizes findings from the larger study report

Maybe Elephants Can Dance: Two Decades of Progress in Delivering Long-Term Services and Supports in Ohio

This longitudinal study, initiated by the General Assembly in 1993 and continuously funded by the Ohio Department of Aging, tracks how long-term services and supports utilization has changed over the past two decades in Ohio

Solvent effects on Grubbs’ pre-catalyst initiation rates

Initiation rates for Grubbs and Grubbs-Hoveyda second generation pre-catalysts have been measured accurately in a range of solvents. Solvatochromic fitting reveals different dependencies on key solvent parameters for the two pre-catalysts, consistent with different mechanisms by which the Grubbs and Grubbs-Hoveyda pre-catalysts initiate

A synthesis-enabled relative stereochemical assignment of the C1-C28 region of hemicalide.

Through synthesising both candidate diastereomers of a model C1-C28 fragment of the potent cytotoxic marine polyketide hemicalide, an assignment of the relative configuration between the C1-C15 and C16-C26 regions has been achieved. By detailed NMR comparisons with the natural product, the relative stereochemistry between these two 1,6-related stereoclusters is elucidated as 13,18-syn rather than the previously proposed 13,18-anti relationship. A flexible and modular strategy using an advanced C1-C28 ketone fragment 22 is outlined to elucidate the remaining stereochemical features and achieve a total synthesis
