Service Delivery in Gerontology Graduate Certificate

Improve the elderly’s ability to access vital services

The Service Delivery in Gerontology Certificate from Utica College is an online, graduate-level program that has been designed to respond to the changing needs of older individuals as they experience transitions in health.

Today’s health care system is fraught with potential problems for older persons and at times can even be described as chaotic, disorganized, inadequate, and poorly distributed. The future demands placed on the health care system will not only include a need for greater numbers of health care workers, but may also involve changes in the way services are currently provided to older adults.

Our Service Delivery online Gerontology program will broaden your current professional knowledge base, allowing you to understand and influence the organization, delivery, and financing of health services to older persons.
