Welcome to the Geriatric Nursing Education Wiki

The purpose of this Wiki is to share resources and tools to improve gerontological and geriatric nursing education. The Wiki was created as a result of the Knowledge Exchange Institute for Geriatric Nursing Education, held at Brock University May 6-8, 2009. The Knowledge Exchange Institute was sponsored by the National Initiative for Care of the Elderly (NICE) and the Canadian Institutes for Health Research (CIHR) and organized by Lynn McCleary (Brock University), Kathy McGilton (Toronto Rehab and University of Toronto), Abram Oudshoorn (University of Western Ontario), Veronique Boscart (University of Toronto), and Lynn McDonald (NICE and University of Toronto). The Knowledge Exchange Institute was part of NICE's work to enhance gerontological nursing education

The Wiki is a way to continue to share knowledge, resources, and tools and for others to join in the process of knowledge exchange with us.

The Wiki started with resources and links to resources that were shared with the Knowledge Exchange Institute participants. Feel free to add new information. See the help and tips for contributing to the wiki section below.

To make it a bit easier to navigate, the wiki is set up with pages for each category of resource. Click on the links below to learn more. To get back to the main page, click on the Main Page bullet in the navigation box to the left.
