During JAMDA's first 15 years of publication, it was the Journal of the American Medical Directors Association. In 2014, JAMDA was renamed the Journal of Post-Acute and Long-Term Care Medicine, better reflecting the breadth of the long-term care spectrum and the involvement
of nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and other members of the interdisciplinary
care team.
