Join either live or view the archived version within a few day of the live webinar (in most cases). All webinars listed are free.  All times shown are Pacific Standard Time. Here are webinars that may be of interest to caregivers in March 2019…


Tuesday, March 5, 10:00-11:00am

“Hospital to Home”

Program: It can be nerve-wracking when an older adult is admitted to a hospital or healthcare facility. And it’s also likely that family caregivers aren’t thinking about what will happen when their loved one is discharged. However, planning for the returning-home process, right from the start, is one of the best things families can do to help set their loved one up for success. Many issues factor into why older adults may be vulnerable to problems at home after they have been in a medical or rehabilitation setting.

Presenter: Lakelyn Hogan, gerontologist, caregiver advocate, Home Instead Senior Care

Presented by: American Society on Aging and Home Instead Senior Care

“Supportive Practices for Grieving Caregivers”

Program: The loss of a loved one can have a devastating impact upon those who are left behind. In fact, one might expect to experience intense grief when caregiver-patient relationship is closer and when care has been provided over a long period of time. Family caregivers are especially vulnerable and need tools to cope with the loss. This webinar will focus on the intense grief that family caregivers may experience when struggling with the acceptance of the loss of a loved one.

Presenter: Dr. Eboni Green, RN, family caregiver

Presented by: Alzheiner’s Foundation of America
