Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volunteerism in Geriatric Settings is an instructional tool for activity directors and others interested in successful volunteer program management. It examines three dimensions of volunteerism: the distinctive dynamics of the volunteer program within the geriatric setting; the behaviors and attitudes managers and volunteers bring to the program; and the responsibility managers have for the nature and scope of programs offered. The innovative programs and approaches that are described in Volunteerism in Geriatric Settings lend themselves to replication. Readers will benefit from the wealth of information on understanding volunteers, program management guidance, models and activities on program enhancement, and recommendations for corrective action. Volunteerism in Geriatric Settings explores the internal arrangements and organizational procedures of typical programs, as well as forces and trends that influence volunteers and volunteer programs. The contributors cover: Understanding volunteerism: describes the concept of caring and the motivation that drives the volunteer experience Planning: describes the mechanics of the volunteer program; explores the recruitment, training, recognition, and retention of volunteers Administration: describes those management styles most often observed in geriatric settings and offers strategies for successful management practices Creative Programming: offers innovative programs and activities that can be adopted with relative ease Keys to Success: outlines recommendations for successful management For those who desire to begin or enhance programs which use volunteers--activity directors, recreation and rehabilitation staff, gerontologists, college and university instructors, geriatric care managers--Volunteerism in Geriatric Settings provides many insights and ideas for volunteer managers at federal, local, and private levels.

Book excerpt: The goal of this comprehensive volume is to encourage volunteerism among retired and older people, for their own good and for the good of society. To this end, it documents the physical and psychosocial benefits, and the personal rewards, that derive from a productive volunteer experience. The book also discusses volunteerism in the context of changing concepts of aging and retirement in America, and presents an extensive listing of up-to-date opportunities for prospective volunteers, bringing the idea of volunteer work into the 21st century. Three appendices provide both hard data on the ways people volunteer in America today and specific guidance on learning how to use the Internet in volunteering—including a useful glossary of Internet terms. A list of sources cited, in print and on the Internet, and an index complete the work.

Book excerpt: "Will 69 million baby boomers suddenly drop out of the workforce when they turn 65? It is difficult to imagine this generation, with its talent, education, and experience, idling away the last thirty years of life."—From the Foreword, by Robert N. Butler, M.D., The Mount Sinai Medical Center Old age has been historically thought of as a period of frailty and dependence, yet studies show that with the help of advances in health and medicine, current populations will live longer and remain healthier than previous generations. As average life expectancies rise, traditional concepts of retirement need to be reconsidered on all levels—from government policy to business practice to individual life planning. In this volume, leaders in the field of gerontology explore these changing conditions through the concept of "productive aging," which has been developed by leaders in the field to promote older adults' contributions to society in social and economic capacities. Productive Aging: Concepts and Challenges treats the implications of productive aging for the discipline of gerontology and for society in general. The first section defines the principles, historical perspectives, and conceptual frameworks for productive aging. The second section takes a disciplinary approach, treating the biomedical, psychological, sociological, and economic implications of a more capable older generation. The third section considers advances in theories of gerontology, and the fourth section suggests future directions in practice, theory, and research. Contributors: W.
