Default Keeping text together on same line - Dr., Mr., a.m., p.m.

Use the "non-breaking space" character. If you go to the "Special Characters"
pane of the "Symbol" tool (on the Insert tab of the Ribbon, its symbol is
a capital Omega, at the far right), it tells you that the keyboard
shortcut for non-breaking space is Ctrl-Shift-Space. (Just as a non-
breaking hyphen is Ctrl-Shift-hyphen.)

I don't want to have to restructure my sentence or force a hard return that may adversely affect the document after edits, so how can I keep a title reference (Dr., Mr., Mrs.) tied to the name or the a.m./p.m. or credentials (Phd, MD) together on the same line? In WP we would use ctrl+space. How do we do this in Word?
