As a researcher, he was the first family physician in the country to receive an NIH research career development award (1986), and he has been continuously funded by the NIH ever since. He co-directs (with Dr. Sheryl Zimmerman) the Program on Aging, Disability, and Long-Term Care of the Cecil G. Sheps Center for Health Services Research at UNC-CH, which has conducted over 50 funded studies of care issues related to older persons. He is particularly noted for his work around the management of behavioral symptoms in Alzheimer\u2019s disease, for which he received the prestigious Pioneer Award from the US Alzheimer\u2019s Association. An advocate for change and improvement in primary care medical practice, he founded the North Carolina Family Medicine Research Network and the North Carolina Network Consortium, which conduct research statewide under current directors Dr Katrina Donahue and Dr. Jacquie Halladay.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Sloane is also highly involved in and committed to education of professionals, paraprofessionals, and consumers, including activities that translate research findings into practice. He co-edits\u00a0<i>Essentials of Family Medicine<\/i>\u00a0and\u00a0<i>Primary Care Geriatrics<\/i>, both of which are currently in their sixth editions, and he co-founded the\u00a0<i>Carolina Alzheimer\u2019s Network<\/i>, a program dedicated to training primary care providers in evidence-based dementia care. Four of his current projects involve translational research; topics include antibiotic stewardship in long-term care; assisting caregivers of persons with dementia in assessing and managing medical symptoms; and helping front office staff of medical practices respond to telephone calls from elderly patients; and training nursing assistants to provide better oral hygiene care.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4468,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"affiliation":[115],"database-category":[293],"expert-year":[287],"class_list":["post-4467","faculty-expert","type-faculty-expert","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","affiliation-fammed","database-category-healthcare-and-health-disparities","expert-year-287","odd"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Philip Sloane, MD, MPH | UNC Expertscape-ranked Faculty<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/oor\/experts\/faculty-expert\/philip-sloane-md-mph\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Philip Sloane, MD, MPH | UNC Expertscape-ranked Faculty\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Dr. Sloane, a family physician and geriatrician, is a nationally recognized expert in both fields.
