[Social work and social gerontology: gerontologic graduate and continuing education for social workers/social pedagogues ].
In their traditional fields, social workers increasingly have to deal with elderly people. Social work is implemented also in special facilities and services for old persons. In the basic education there is still no guarantee of a basic knowledge in social gerontology. This ist why further education programs are necessary. In a postgraduate curriculum the social work experience should be combined with the theoretical basis of social gerontology.
