The San Diego/Imperial Geriatric Education Center (SDIGEC) was established in 2015 to address the need for enhanced geriatric education on Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Dementias (ADRD) in San Diego County, California. This work built upon a county-wide assessment of San Diego titled The Alzheimer’s Project, which continues to shape services for people experiencing memory loss and to inform the Age Well San Diego Action Plan to create a vision of an age-friendly/dementia-friendly San Diego. In 2019, we expanded our focus to include comprehensive geriatrics and age-friendly health care education for primary care in rural and underserved areas. We have developed partnerships with several Federally Qualified Health Centers and Programs of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly and expanded our program by adding the neighboring Imperial County here in Southern California. Through robust partnerships with academic, healthcare, community and County program providers, our community is working to maximize our impact on addressing care gaps and improving health outcomes for older adults, strengthening training of the geriatric workforce, and building age-friendly and dementia-friendly health systems and communities.
