Successful Aging Net (SAN) is a geriatric management and home care company with gerontologists and other professionals who specialize in assisting older people and their families in meeting their long-term care needs.

A Gerontologist is a professional who has an advanced degree in gerontology. (Gerontology is the science of aging. It is a multidisciplinary study of the physical, cognitive, emotional, and social changes associated with the aging process and how to cope with these changes.) A Gerontologist is different from a Geriatrician. Whereas a geriatrician studies and treats diseases associated with aging, a Gerontologist knows the best way to maximize peoples' independence as they age even in the midst of these debilitating diseases.

Little wonder, most Gerontologists provide consultation on the benefits available to older adults and caregivers. By developing a working relationship and overseeing the services provided by other professionals like Nurse Practitioners, Elder Law Attorneys, Aging Care Managers and Social Workers; Gerontologists coordinate continuum of care and make aging in place a success.
