Successful Aging Across the Lifespan

Page 2: Aging Successfully  Conference Brochure

ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Getting older is not an event – there is no “magic age” at which we become old. Rather, aging is a process that occurs across the life span and affects every aspect of our lives. As the “graying of America” continues, it becomes more and more important to plan for later life, not only for our older relatives but for ourselves as well.

This one-day conference will explore key issues facing older adults and their families as they plan for a long and healthy life. Geared toward a wide audience, the conference should appeal to practitioners, service providers in all fields, academics interested in aging and older adults, and to any individuals who want to learn more about how to plan for the “good life” as they and their family members grow older. An outstanding group of experts will address a range of topics, including:

• Strategies for staying healthy and keeping fit

• Planning for the future and navigating difficult healthcare and financial decisions

• Making decisions about older adults’ ability to continue managing financial matters

• Environmental modifications and tips for aging in place no matter where one lives

• Coping with Alzheimer’s disease from both the patient’s and the caregiver’s perspective
