Healthy Aging

Description

Our population is aging, meaning that we will continue to see an increasing proportion of older individuals. This course is designed to introduce students to this important demographic shift as it is projected to add to healthcare burden. However, increased longevity does not translate to better health outcomes. The aging population will present new challenges to healthcare professionals, and as such it is important to examine aging across the lifespan through a holistic lens (through a critical analysis of multiple determinants of health). Furthermore, as more information is available now than ever before due to advances in information technology, healthcare professionals must become adept at critically evaluating the evolving information base.
