Virtual program

Ageless Wisdom is an interactive and experiential geriatric sensitivity training program. Objectives of the program are to:

• Identify and experience normal changes as we age
• Identify and experience changes as a result of disease and disability associated with the aging process
• Discuss golden rules that outline strategies to manage the changes
• Help the audience to view aging as a positive experience

Ageless Wisdom offers a Train the Trainer opportunity in which individuals can become Trainers to present Ageless Wisdom to other individuals, such as an in-service training for staff members. Upon completion of this virtual class, attendees will be able to deliver the Ageless Wisdom aging sensitivity training program offered by Education and Consultative Services of UPMC Senior Services. Educators, nurses, activity directors and social workers are encouraged to attend..
