Making a positive difference in the lives of older people and nurses who care for them.
The Gerontological Nursing Association Ontario is an organization comprised of all classes of registered nurses (RNs), registered practical nurses (RPNs), retired nurses and student nurses, as well as allied health care workers (both professional and non-regulated) who are engaged in the care and well-being of older adults. Gerontological nursing is exciting and diverse — we work in hospitals, rehabilitation centres, home care, community care, public health, retirement homes, long-term care homes, and more! We are passionate about issues affecting older adults, including delirium, dementia, depression, bone health, falls, elder abuse, palliative care, and more.
