AgeWell Collaboratory

As more of us live longer, we face a powerful opportunity to reimagine health care in ways that help us remain active and vital in our homes and communities. At Drexel’s College of Nursing and Health Professions (CNHP), we believe that we need to re-engineer a whole range of programs and policies to better serve the growing numbers of people with chronic conditions and overcome the training limitations of today’s health care workforce. The AgeWell Collaboratory serves as a “center without walls” at Drexel. We bring together scientists, community members, practitioners, educators, and students together to find creative ways to address the most important challenges facing our aging society.
