    Summary of the research paper:

    An aggregate survey tool and assessment dealing with individuals over 65 with heart disease was developed using at least sixteen clinical hours. These activities were discussed, and the effects of using this assessment as compared to working with families of patients and the patients themselves. The conclusion states that the aggregate can be simpler, allowing practitioners to focus on details. The study took place between July 18 and August 1, 2002.This paper has five pages and four sources are listed in the bibliography.

    Unformatted Sample Text from the Research Paper:
    of the activities resulting in completion of the aggregate survey tool and assessment. The effort began on July 18, 2002, ending on August 1. The purpose of these  activities was to identify and assess an aggregate of individuals over the age of 65 who also have heart disease, investing at least sixteen clinical hours in the effort.  Procedures The Erie Center on Health and Aging provides social and health services to the senior citizens of Erie County, and that agencys  primary site was where more than two-thirds (eleven hours) of the time involved in this effort was invested. I met with Kathy Bross, BSN, RN, Clinical Coordinator at the  agencys primary site on July 18, 2002 for three hours, and again on July 22 for another five hours. The purpose of these meetings was to discover more about  the centers operations and the community that it serves, and to discuss the specific aggregate I would be assessing. During the first meeting  with Ms. Bross, we discussed the center and its mission, and the people it serves in the local area. Ms. Bross provided me with assessment tools and screening forms,  later adding informational pamphlets discussing heart disease in the aging. My first meeting with Ms. Bross largely was informational. During my second visit on July 22, I was  able to tour the agencys facilities and establish a schedule for meeting with individuals comprising the aggregate of interest. As stated, that aggregate consisted of individuals over the age  of 65 who have heart disease. Ms. Bross and I scheduled the first half of the required assessment time for July 30.
