Background: On February 3, 2020, as a geriatrician‐hospitalist and clinical researcher working in New York State’s largest healthcare system, I was thrilled to start enrollment for my first National Institute on Aging grant. The clinical trial aimed to improve behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia in hospitalized older adults with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. While the previous 3 months was spent providing dementia care training to nursing assistants, it was now time to begin patient and caregiver recruitment.
