OCT 10 CARE PATROL
Last Thursday we had the pleasure of learning about from Mary Ann Pickell, CEO of the local franchise. She emphasized the need for planning as life is an ever-moving experience.
But the focus here is toward the later stages of life:
Where will I live if I start to have difficulty living in my home?
What should I do if I can no longer take care of myself?
We do not tend to think about or plan for these questions until they happen which is usually under a stressful circumstance, like a hospitalization.
Taking your next step…
Planning for Senior Care and Understanding the options
Signs that you or a loved one may need more help
Types of Non-medical Supportive Care
Paying for Care
Having the “talk” with your loved ones

OCT 23 JANET SIPPLE LECTURE
AMPLIFY THE VOICE OF NURSING - BE RELENTLESS!
 
Once again we have an exciting speaker coming this year for the Sipple lecture. Robin Cogan will be speaking to the community about the voice of nursing on Wednesday October 23rd at 5:00pm in Foy Hall, Moravian College.
 
Ms. Cogan developed and maintains her own blog, “The Relentless School Nurse” where she brings to light important topics concerning the overall health and wellbeing of our communities (please find at: https://relentlessschoolnurse.com/ ). This blog was awarded Top Nurse Blog in 2018.
 
Ms. Cogan believes nursing has the ability to be more visible in these important conversations concerning community health and wellbeing through embodying a positive presence on social media. We are very excited to have this dynamic “force” share her wisdom with our community
 

Tickets are free for this event.

Questions: please contact Elise Colancecco at colanceccoe@moravian.edu.
