What is AgingME GWEP?
AgingME GWEP aims to create a more age-friendly health system by better preparing an age-capable workforce, transforming primary care practices and engaging and empowering older adults.
The Geriatrics Workforce Enhancement Program (GWEP) is a 5-year initiative that seeks to improve health outcomes for older adults. The University of New England College of Osteopathic Medicine (UNE COM), working in close collaboration with the University of Maine and multiple statewide partners, was one of 48 organizations nationally to receive this funding through the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Maine’s GWEP is known as AgingME.
