As We Age
Aging is inevitable and can even be looked at as a gift. The process and result of aging comes with many questions and concerns for both those that are going through it and their families. The goal is never to look at aging as a negative, but rather to be informed and educated in order to make decisions that improve quality of life. Examples of topics that may interest your aging community include:
- Exercising the body and mind
- How technology can help us stay independent
- Knowing the differences between normal aging and signs of dementia
- Alzheimer's 101
- How to cope with caregiver stress
- Signs you may need home care
Senior Safety
With an aging body and mind, comes more opportunities for falls, confusion, and even scams. Small changes to the organization or layout of your kitchen and bathroom can make a big difference in staying independent safely. Having a game plan for when a fall happens or a threatening scammer calls can make everyone feel more at ease. Examples of topics surrounding senior safety include:
- Staying safe at home:
- Kitchen and bathroom products and tips
- Medication safety
- Preventing falls
- Safety on the go ( outside the home and while driving)
- Typical senior scams and how to avoid them
Driver Safety
These presentation are designed to increase awareness concerning the onset of diminishing driving skills related to the aging process. We provide a road map to help families address the issue of their loved one's driving with tact, compassion, and empathy, so that the older driver's dignity and independence is never unnecessarily jeopardized. This is a great opportunity for both aging adults and their children to vent any frustrations related to the sensitive topic. Examples of topics concerning an aging driver include:
- A guide to keeping the aging driver safe behind the wheel
- Driving and Dementia
- How to cope with and address an aging parent's driving (for the adult children)
