Older Adults and Extreme Cold; New!! Supporting Caregivers; Embedding Caregiving Across the Full Community Webinar; Elevating Dementia Caregiving Webinar Recording
Older
adults are more sensitive to cold than younger adults. Read our new Older Adults and Extreme Cold page on how
to stay warm and safe during the winter months and avoid cold-related
illnesses and injuries.
Caregivers
need recognition and support to do the vital work of caring for older
adults and people with disabilities or chronic health conditions. Read our
November web feature, Supporting Caregivers, to learn about
caregiving, caregivers, and their challenges and risks.
Caregiving
is a crucial yet often overlooked component of community life. Public
health agencies are uniquely suited to address challenges posed by unpaid
dementia caregiving by using a chief health strategist approach. Join the
Alzheimer’s Association on Tuesday, December 7, from
2:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. EST, for Chief Health
Strategists: Embedding Caregiving Across the Full Community.
The number of people in the
United States living with dementia and family caregivers continues to
rise, yet, dementia caregiving remains an emerging public health
priority. Watch the webinar recording to learn how and why
dementia caregiving is a public health concern.
