Event Details

The challenges associated with aging and caregiving can be overwhelming and stressful. While stress is an essential component of lifeโ€”it helps keep us safeโ€”it can also put our bodies and brains into fight-or-flight mode. Stress activation has a profound impact on brain performance in the short run and damages the brain in the long run. Dr. All will describe the effects of chronic stress on the brain and provide valuable strategies for helping older adults and their caregivers regain focus and reduce the negative impacts of stress, leading to increased resilience, clarity and calmness.


Open to all professionals in the field of aging.


This program will award 2.0 clock hours for CEUs for Social Workers, Professional Counselors, Nurses and Nursing Home Administrators. License number required.
