SOCW 652 - Aging, Health and Wellness


3 Credits
Community-based clinical practice with older persons calls for knowledge of the physical, psychological and spiritual dimensions of aging; the family, community and cultural contexts of aging; and the impact of social policies on health outcomes for older persons and their families. This course explores the diversity of the aging experience as related to mental health, socio-economic status and cultural expectations. Students explore intervention modalities with special focus on especially vulnerable and historically marginalized segments of the elderly population.
