Robert Trenholm

BSN, RN-BC

Robert Trenholm received his Bachelors of Science in Nursing (with an emphasis on education) from Missouri Baptist University in Chesterfield, Missouri. He worked in the area of Surgical Services for over 20 years and was involved in clinical education for most of that time. Then, five years ago, Robert decided it was time for a change of practice specialty and weather, so he moved to sunny Florida. He is now the Gerontology Educator at Baptist Health's AgeWell Institute in Jacksonville. Robert is Board Certified in both Gerontology and Nursing Informatics. He has taught in both clinical and academic settings. He has spoken widely on a variety of health science topics, and he has also edited and authored educational materials used in the field of Surgical Technology. His most recent area of professional focus has been the study of delirium in hospitalized patients. Robert's other special interests include longevity lifestyle studies, and the impact of lifestyle and aging on epigenetic expression. Once a week he leads a meditation group session at Baptist Health and in the recent past has led a 12 week series of \\"Lunch Time Yoga\\" sessions as part of the employee health and wellness program. Robert is currently working on a Master's Degree in Nursing Education at Jacksonville University. He lives in St. Augustine with his wife Kathleen, and their two cats (Smoky and Stella).
