UPIA Sponsored Services

The Institute sponsors a variety of services tailored to meet the diverse needs of busy professionals in aging. These include educational initiatives, such as CME-awarding half-day, one-day, and multi-day courses and conferences, multi-course certificate programs, and our Speakers Bureau. In addition, we now offer a Case Management Service to assist older adults who wish to continue living in the community. For additional information about these services, click on the headers below.

UPIA Senior Services

In addition to providing professional resources, the Institute on Aging brings together educational, research and clinical programs at the University of Pittsburgh and UPMC. Clinical services include:

  • inpatient and outpatient specialty care
  • home care including home health nursing, durable medical equipment, infusion and respiratory therapies, physical rehabilitation, and hospice
  • mental health & psychiatric services
  • dental care
  • pharmacy services
  • long-term care & retirement housing
  • physical rehabilitation services

For the 700,000 western Pennsylvanians age 65 and older, quality of life involves far more than medical care – it also includes social, spiritual, financial, legal, and ethical concerns. The Institute on Aging connects information on a wide range of these issues, with the goal of helping older adults get the services they need. Information about the Institute’s comprehensive services is available on the older adults site.
