[humanser] best practices

[Reyazuddin, Yasmin]

Hi Lisa, 
The best source of information on Gerontology is on the Gerontological society website. They have information on schools and the different programs. California is great with such programs. The website is www.geron.org 
I have met many members of this group as my father used to work with them. The website is quite accessible. Once again Good luck in your search.

Hello All, 

 

 

I After a long absence from the workforce I am making efforts to reinvent myself and return to my original vocational calling; serving older adults.
Eventually, I would like to begin working as a Recovery and Wellness Educator for older adults living with mental illness/mental health challenges. 

 

Although I have two undergraduate degrees and a couple of certificates I consider myself a para professional. Due in part to my college degrees being almost 30 years old. My certificate in gerontology is about twenty years old. I have mixed feelings about pursuing higher education. On the other hand, I have toyed with the idea of perhaps earning a graduate degree in gerontology. Is anyone familiar with National University's online Gerontology M. S. degree program? I've also toyed around with the notion of getting different B. S. degree; perhaps a degree in Human Services as a case worker. Meanwhile, I've got bills to pay and need to work. I welcome hearing from you. 

 

 

Warmly,

Lisa Irving
