The workshop will draw attention to urgent issues that seniors and families must communicate about and make preparations for. Our expert panel of speakers will address mental health concerns, social needs, legal concerns, senior housing options, safety issues and state legislation affecting older adults.
Speakers include:
Pat Baker, Director Gwinnett County Health & Human Services
Anresa Davis, Senior Residency Counselor, Park Springs
Ann Wilder, Director of Behavioral Health, Eastside Medical South Campus
Kevin Martinez, Gwinnett Police
Wally Kellerman, Elder Care Attorney
State Senator Renee Unterman, Chairman of the Health & Human Services Committee
Most of us likely know families coping with Alzheimer’s or other debilitating circumstances that have removed a senior’s capability to make and express choices. We hope to provide information that will draw attention to the issues and provide expert, free timely information.
