MS131 Congregational Care of Older Adults
This course equips students to enhance the quality of life and well-being for older people within the context of a local congregation. Through readings and other assignments, students gain insight into how older people may find meaning in later life and learn methods for working with older adults across the health-illness continuum. Attention is also given to the pastoral caregiver's role in relating to older people in the congregation.
