Abstract
Ainsley MacIntyre, a master’s student in gerontology, feels a close connection to people many times her age.
Growing up in Sydney, Nova Scotia, MacIntyre routinely volunteered her time in nursing homes, helping out in a variety of jobs from food services and reading to residents, to playing piano during lunch hour.
“I’ve always had a close relationship with my grandparents and older adults in general,” says MacIntyre.
