Senior Concerns will host a free seminar titled “Advice From the Experts: What I Wish I’d Known About Caring for An Aging Loved One” from 5:30 to 7 p.m. Tues., June 24 at at 401 Hodencamp Road, Thousand Oaks.
The seminar will be presented by these caregivers, who went on to become professionals in the field: Sue Lindemann, founding board member of the Ventura County Alzheimer’s Association; Charna Posin, senior advocate for Senior Concerns; and Viki Kind, clinical bioethicist.
Participants can learn ways to manage the decisions, logistics and emotions of the caregiving process.
The seminar is intended for new and experienced caregivers as well as for those who are local or long distance.
A University of California study estimates the stress of caregiving can take as much as 10 years off the life of a family caregiver.
A $10 donation is requested to cover the cost of program materials. Seating is limited. Light refreshments will be served.
For more information or to RSVP, call Senior Concerns at (805) 497-0189.
