The Schlegel-UW Research Institute for Aging (RIA) promotes research relevant to aging in community and care settings. It focuses on practice-relevant research as a driving force behind innovation and quality care. Currently, the RIA is involved in research projects at the frontline within long-term care and retirement communities that will bring a highly targeted practical benefit to seniors in care settings. Researchers affiliated with the RIA are investigating ways in research dealing with topics such as spirituality, posture, functional abilities and dementia can significantly improve the quality of life for seniors.
