Presenting Elder Group Work

The University of Iceland hosted a community open lecture that I presented on my book, Group Techniques for Aging Adults, 2nd Edition. The questions were excellent and attendees appeared enthusiastic to incorporate new ideas. I have observed that the Icelandic social services and elder care specialists are committed to go beyond mere housing and medical, but to provide an enriching environment for older adults. We are definitely in harmony in that objective.

Thanks again to Dr Sigurveig Siguraordottir, Associate Professor, and the Social Work department at University of Iceland for inviting me to teach in the NordMag Intensive week. The students from Iceland, Sweden and Finland were eager to learn and a pleasure to teach.

This is Sigurevig and I in her office saying farewell, until next visit.
