Arkansas
Geriatric Education Center (AGEC)
On July 1, 1999, the Arkansas Geriatric Education Center (AGEC)
was established through a three year grant from the Health
Resources and Service Administration (HRSA). The objectives
for the AGEC are:
- to improve training opportunities and continuing education
in geriatrics to health professionals who are practicing
in Arkansas;
- to develop interprofessional courses and materials for
students in the health professions in the colleges and universities
in Arkansas; and
- to offer opportunities in geriatric training to faculty
who teach or supervise students in the health professions.
The goal is to improve the knowledge and skills of health
care providers who care for older Arkansans.
