What are some different jobs available for a gerontologist? - 518914 - 11-18-2012 01:05 PM

I am in high school and am trying to think of future careers I may want. I love working with the elderly and figured gerontology would be good for me. Only problem is I don't wish to be a nurse or doctor and I don't know any other jobs available in gerontology other than nursing.

I am currently a Gerontology major in college and although I have not taken too many classes for the major yet, I do know of some careers available in it; you can be a lawyer and practice elder law, there are many career oppertunities for running a nursing home such as a nursing home administrator, activities director at a nursing home, running an assisted living facility, architecture for building properties for elders, social worker for elderly people, hospital careers in administration or marketing.
