This course provides a non-clinical knowledge base
of the physical and mental aging processes, including forms of dementia, and
will introduce students to holistic (physical, spiritual, psychological, and
social) wellness promotion in older adults, with particular attention to
creating programs for this purpose. Students will be introduced to principles
of spiritual development in older adults that can aid individuals and their
families in adjusting to loss and later-life transitions.
