Adult & Gerontology Area of Study

The impact the college's gerontological nursing faculty and students will make on the health of older Iowans is significant. With nearly 19 percent of Iowans ages 60 or older, and 2.2 percent ages 85 or older, Iowa's population is one of the oldest, per capita, in the country.

Often older adults have multiple chronic illnesses, making nurses with advanced knowledge in the area of geriatric care critically important in this state and beyond. The Adult and Gerontology Area of Study is organized to group faculty members with gerontological nursing research and teaching expertise together to maximize sharing of information, ideas, and resources.
