Older Americans are steadily becoming a larger share of the population, a change that is especially notable in Florida. By 2040, the Sunshine State is expected to have almost 7 million older adults, with more than 1.2 million of those age 85 or older. 

The Department of Geriatrics at the Florida State University College of Medicine continues to lead efforts to reshape health care to serve older patients’ unique needs. It was recently awarded a five-year, $5 million grant from the federal Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA).
