Aging
Throughout its
history, the Committee on Aging has developed reports that
have influenced practice and policy as they relate to
older adults.
For example, the decision by the American Board of
Psychiatry and Neurology to have subspecialization in
geriatric Psychiatry was influenced by the GAP Committee
on Aging Guide to Curriculum Development in Mental Health
and Aging. The committee also engages a diverse group of
consultants ranging from congressional staff in the area
of Aging to leaders of national associations relating to
issues relating to older adults to computer experts in
interactive educational video.
We are presently at a historic moment with the
longevity revolution and research and progress in
Geriatric Psychiatry.
The
Committee on Aging is in the process of seizing the moment
to help bring the
field to new heights. |
