Description

To serve the increased number of older persons effectively, human service professionals need to be knowledgeable about the existing continuum of home and community services. Common health, legal, financial and housing issues facing older adults and their caregivers will be analyzed. Students will have the opportunity to review and analyze a variety of available aging resources. A case study approach will enable human service professionals to identify concerns and develop appropriate policies and programs to address the needs of a diverse aging population.
