NICHE is an international program affiliated with NYU Rory Meyers College of Nursing that seeks to improve geriatric care in hospitals and other healthcare organizations. It educates nurses, equipping them with knowledge and practical skills to deliver high-quality care to older adults across acute and long-term settings. The program emphasizes evidence-based practices and practical tools that frontline nurses can implement through care programs and protocols. Its primary customers are hospitals and healthcare systems looking to elevate the standard of geriatric care through nurse-driven initiatives. Based in New York City, NICHE operates as a small to mid-sized entity within the education administration programs space. In November 2020, NICHE launched the NICHE-ABIM Foundation Choosing Wisely Trailblazer Award, a collaboration with the ABIM Foundation to recognize initiatives promoting prudent, evidence-based geriatric care.
