Broadly speaking there are two kinds of professional practice
skills relevant to the burgeoning field of gerontological human
service: clinical modalities and macro strategies. This book
identifies seven essential approaches to clinical gerontology,
including five of the most important macro skills that all
professionals in the field will need to acquire, and it presents
each of them in a single collection intended to serve as a basic
text and reference work for academic and in-service training.
Each contributor to this volume speaks with recognized expertise
on his/her preferred subject, while mindful of the larger purpose
of the collection as a whole. In a concluding chapter, Dr. Kim
draws on his own long and successful experience in obtaining
financial support for his programs and provides a wealth of useful
information on the preparation of grant proposals and the conduct
of other fundraising activities.
"Serving the Elderly" is adaptable to the uses of a wide
variety of geriatric health care providers, from students and
trainees in social work, clinical psychology, and other care-giving
professions to already established practitioners who are branching
out in gerontology.
