New Mexico Geriatric Education Center
The New Mexico Geriatric Education Center (NMGEC) is dedicated to improving the health care of American Indian elders through the education and training of health care providers. NMGEC programs are designed to enhance the ability of health care professionals to deliver geriatric and culturally appropriate care. Working in partnership with the Indian Health Service (IHS), the New Mexico Veterans Healthcare System, the National Indian Council on Aging (NICOA), New Mexico Indian Council on Aging, the Laguna Rainbow Corporation, and statewide consortium members, the NMGEC benefits from close interaction with American Indian communities.
