Reframing Aging Webinar Recording: A Primer for Health Care Professionals
The Gerontological Society of America (GSA) hosted a webinar on August 12, "Reframing Aging: A Primer for Health Care Professionals."
Healthcare professionals working on the frontlines of the COVID-19 pandemic are confronted daily with communication choices. Research by the FrameWorks Institute on aging and ageism shows that words matter.
