Gerontology
Society’s changing demographic makes gerontology an important area of study. Approximately 4 million Canadians are 65 years of age or older. This age group is the fastest growing segment of the Canadian population. An aging population has economic, ethical, lifestyle, political and health care implications.
In this course, we discuss the aging process and the diseases commonly associated with aging. We also discuss the classes of drugs recommended for treatment of these diseases. However,
this course is not designed to provide specific drug related detail such as specific drug doses, side effects or drug interactions.
