INFO: Seniors Housing & Care Journal submission deadline April 2nd

Hello psyaging,

If you or your students have a paper sitting around and are looking for an outlet with a quick turn-around time, please consider Seniors Housing & Care Journal.

Seniors Housing & Care Journal is accepting submissions for the 2012 edition until April 2nd. SHCJ is a peer-reviewed academic journal that disseminates empirically based research regarding the senior housing and care fields, addresses critical issues faced by senior care professionals, and is relevant to the day-to-day operation of senior care communities.

The journal accepts research papers (original reports of completed research) and brief reports (pilot studies about innovative ideas for senior housing and care with implications for future research). Occasionally, a limited number of commentaries addressing emerging issues faced by the senior housing and care industry and brief reviews of new resources available to practitioners in the field may be accepted for publication.

Annually, editors select up to two outstanding research papers for special recognition (one for Best Research Paper and one New Investigator prize) and monetary ($2500) award.

For more information, please contact me at sking4@su.edu or Saher Selod at sselod@matherlifeways.com.
