Background:
The number of older people
is growing and they frequently have health-related problems
with a mixture of physical, mental, social and behavioural
aspects. In the past, these problems were seen only in
a few older people and the families were able to take
care of their parents or old relatives. However, societies
are changing as a result of the demographic and cultural
developments and they face the increasing possibilities
of modern medicine. The Middle East Academy for Medicine
of Ageing Started in 2002. The first course 2003/2005
to stimulate the development of health care services for
older people in the Middle- East area. The course has
been build up with 4 sessions, each of 4 days, that will
cover important topics of the health-related problems
in older people. The aim of the Middle-East Academy for
Medicine of Ageing:
- To stimulate the
development of services to meet the health related problems
in increasing number of older people in the Middle-
East Area.
- To improve knowledge
and skills of professionals, physicians, nurses and
health care officers, in health related problems in
older people, starting with a special interest in community
care in the Middle-East area.
- To harmonise the
attitudes and goals of future opinion leaders in approaching
the health related problems of older people in the Middle
East area.
- To establish a
network among physicians, nurses and health care officers,
responsible for the health care of older people and
those responsible for medical and nurse students instruction,
as well as general physicians caring for aged people.
- To
stimulate scientific interest in the health related
problems in older people.
Benefit of application:
The course will increase knowledge and skills in the management
of health related problems in older people in the Middle-East
area. Participants will be trained in searching literature,
presenting state of the art lectures, discussion with
opinion leaders and chairing and reporting groups discussions.
Each participant will be evaluated individually, to reach
a maximum improvement of experiences and skills. The certificate
of the course will be a valuable document for the participants'
career.
