Zoom – Medications in Older Adults
Caregiver Teleconnection sessions are one hour learning sessions for caregivers of older persons. Experts from around the country share information important to caregiving. Caregivers will have the opportunity to ask questions as well as hear from other caregivers.
Our sessions are geared for the family members taking care of a loved one over the age of 60. Professionals are also welcome to participate as well.
Learn more about how the aging process can affect how the medication is absorbed, used in the body, and exits the body. What alternative medications may need to be discussed with a health care provider.
