Outline
The Department of Geriatric Nursing and Administration offers opportunities to nursing graduate students and researchers for advanced research and education regarding elder care and the development of effective and efficient care systems for graying societies. As populations rapidly age, greater knowledge about care for the aged and the development of new care systems are required. These will necessarily focus on factors such as disease type, values, and the family and social environments that aged people are immersed in, as well as on the relationships among the factors. Therefore, both a macroscopic and a microscopic view are needed for nursing researchers and students who are studying care for the aged and the development of new systems.
