Older patients often require complex and specialized care to maintain physical and mental health.
With new advances in all areas of health care, nurses specializing in gerontology offer their patients increased mobility, improved resilience and greater peace of mind. This 18-credit program challenges you to apply compassion, dedication, leadership and knowledge to end-of-life care populations.
We are expanding our Fall 2026 programming to include a fully synchronous, online format tailored for domestic students. Experience real‐time engagement with instructors and peers from the comfort of your home. Dates and registration details will be posted shortly.
