The study of the biological, psychological, and sociological aspects of aging is called gerontology. Doctors who treat older people are called geriatricians. However both these are not sufficient to provide support to the growing number of older people in our society. If you think that working with older people is for you, check out this list of careers. There’s something here for all levels of education and for people with varied interests.

The obvious careers that come to mind are those where medicine & nursing are specialized for older people. People providing everyday care for elders and advising them about their medications. But there are many more requirements in other fields where one can specialize in providing services to the elderly.

For a detailed list of careers check out the list here.

    Daksha Bhat is interested in the management of ageing. As our society ages we need to create structures that will support the needs of the ageing population. We need to talk about the issues, understand them, and create the social environment that will lead to better services for the elderly. This website is a small attempt to be part of a bigger solution.
