The Institute for Health, Health Care Policy, and Aging Research is hosting a brown bag seminar, “Protection through Connection: Social Support and Elder Abuse, Disaster, and Bereavement,” presented by Ron Acierno, professor and associate dean for research in the College of Nursing, Medical University of South Carolina.
Acierno’s research includes epidemiological studies of elder mistreatment and treatment outcome studies that use home-based telemedicine for treatment delivery for victims of trauma, disaster, combat, or loss. Acierno mixes epidemiological research with treatment outcomes research, keeping close to the clinical world as a clinician-administrator for treatment programs that serve both civilian and military traumatized populations.
Free and open to the public
