Dr. Kelly Niles-Yokum grew up in the world of gerontology.<\/p>\n

Her mother, who has a Ph.D in the field, brought her to conferences when she was growing up, and she got to know her mother\u2019s research subjects.<\/p>\n

But she did not see herself following the same path. Not at first, at least.<\/p>\n

\u201cI went on to get a psych undergraduate degree and didn\u2019t think I was interested,\u201d Niles-Yokum said.<\/p>\n

As her academic career continued, friends encouraged her to return to gerontology and she realized it was her passion all along. She obtained a Ph.D in the field at University of Maryland Baltimore County and now serves as director for 每日大赛\u2019s Master of Science in Gerontology program.<\/p>\n

Niles-Yokum is hoping to introduce more students to the field through a Gerontology Career Fair on April 6 from 4 to 6 p.m. at 每日大赛\u2019s Campus Center. It is open to students who want to learn more about the field, or would like to pursue internships and jobs in gerontology.<\/p>\n

Gerontology is the study of aging and older adults. Gerontologists include professionals who develop policies and programs affecting the elderly, or work as administrators in long-term care settings. Because the field is multidisciplinary, gerontologists may also be researchers who study mental, physical and social changes in people as they grow older and the impact on society.<\/p>\n

With the support of University administrators and colleagues in the College of Business and Public Management, Niles-Yokum has revamped the entire curriculum to align with current needs in the field including approved competencies and incorporated community engagement into the classes.<\/p>\n

She has instituted new courses including \u201cPerspectives in Aging,\u201d a class that provides a comprehensive view of the field for students whose undergraduate majors did not encompass \u201csocial gerontology,\u201d she said. Social gerontology is a focus within the field that concerns the social aspect of aging.<\/p>\n

\u201cCaregiving in the Aging Family\u201d is another new course where students interview a cross-section of caregivers including people who provide care full time, or split their time between a job and caregiving, to understand their different experiences.<\/p>\n

She combined some existing courses into other courses, such as \u201cNutrition and Aging,\u201d which she felt was not necessary as a standalone course. The topic is now incorporated into the \u201cHealth in Later Years\u201d class.<\/p>\n

Niles-Yokum also considered community engagement to be a critical piece to make the program successful.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn every class, students are involved in the community in some way,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Gerontology students spend time and are \u201cpartnered\u201d with residents living with dementia at Hillcrest Homes\u2019 Southwoods Lodge to learn the importance of providing social, psychological and emotional connections with them. It provides them an opportunity to alleviate feelings of isolation, boredom and loneliness. It is important because residents can become lost in a task-oriented routine, and having someone to spend time with them helps. But it can be challenging for students to simply be present and listen to their \u201cpartners,\u201d rather than revolve a visit around an activity. Students also find it difficult not becoming emotionally attached.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey were struggling with how to find closure,\u201d Niles-Yokum said. \u201cThey were nervous about leaving their partner during the (winter) break because a lot can happen with the illness in a short time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rosemary Barnes \u201915, who earned a Masters in Gerontology and is pursuing a doctorate to one day work in government policy and research, said she appreciated how the program utilized a theory-to-practice approach. With the aging baby boomer population, it is a field that is in high demand.<\/p>\n

\u201cI really do think that people with this type of background in gerontology will be in great need and also will be very beneficial for the future in our aging population,\u201d Barnes said.<\/p>\n

Niles-Yokum\u2019s work to put gerontology on the map at La Verne extended beyond the classroom last year when she helped establish Sigma Phi Omega, an academic and professional honors society in the field. The group meets three times a year to raise funds for organizations that help aging populations, and to conduct collaborative research.<\/p>\n

Her contributions to gerontology earned Niles-Yokum the title of fellow of the Association for Gerontology in Higher Education in December, the highest honor a member can receive from the organization.<\/p>\n

Between that development and La Verne\u2019s revamped program, Niles-Yokum calls it an exciting time for gerontology.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been a validating moment for me as a professor,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
