Safe use of Medications for Seniors and their Caregivers Series
Caregiver Teleconnection sessions are one hour learning sessions that can be done via Zoom or over the phone 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.
Modern medicines have contributed to longer life spans. However, for older adults any form of medication, prescription, or over the counter can be a double edge sword. What caregivers and seniors need to know. Please join Lucy Barylak ,MSW who will animate the two sessions. All the topics are listed below.
