Prof. Tina Sadarangani, PhD, RN, FAAN is an NYU Assistant Professor and a board-certified adult and geriatric nurse practitioner. Prof. Sadarangani is an NIH-funded clinician scientist over-seeing a research portfolio focused on improving care for people with Alzheimer’s disease and their families. She has built a growing movement to help families, especially immigrant families, caring for a chronically ill person navigate a complex and fragmented healthcare system. Her work has impacted families and eldercare organizations nationwide. Prof. Sadarangani’s expertise includes family caregivers, adult day care services, older adult nutrition, age-tech, and addressing the long-term care needs of ethnically diverse older adults.
With support from the National Institutes of Health, Prof. Sadarangani created an award-winning mobile app– CareMobiTM - out of her NYU lab that helps family members caring for a chronically ill loved one, particularly those with dementia, communicate around the day-to-day care of their loved ones. She is also the creator of The Enlightened Caregiver – a social media movement - that empowers families with practical guidance on how to get optimal, not usual, healthcare for the people they love.
Her research also innovatively positions adult day centers, which represent a growing but understudied sector of long-term care, as platforms for chronic disease management in underserved communities. A leader in using community-partnered research in adult day centers, her on-going collaborations with the National Adult Day Services Association and the California Association of Adult Day Services, have demonstrated that integrating adult day centers into the healthcare continuum contributes to reductions in avoidable healthcare utilization and person-centered care. She is also the nation's leading researcher focused on evaluating and improving nutrition programs in adult day centers.
Prof. Sadarangani has published extensively in peer-reviewed academic journals, including in the American Journal of Public Health and the Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association. She has been featured in the New York Times, Associated Press, US News and World Report, among several other major media outlets. She has been recognized as a Woman of Distinction/Rising Star in Long-Term Care and recently recognized by Crain’s New York Business as a Notable Leader in Healthcare. She is a Fellow of the American Academy of Nursing, the Gerontological Society of America, and the New York Academy of Medicine.
