Abstract:
:Further education in practical, clinical and scientific-theoretical gerontology is of great importance either for the global care of the elderly or to increase the knowledge concerning the problems of aging. In this paper we try to evaluate critically activities referring to this, to furthermore develop in international comparison strategies to improve the situation. We present objectives of the Austrian health politics and we more precisely depict the actual implementation as to university and non-university education events.
