St. James NEST Speaker Series "Aging in Place: What's Your Plan"

How to Masterfully Manage Your Medications and Health

Speaker: Denise Hayes, RPh, MS, The Apothecary at St. James

Drug and/or supplement interactions negatively impact seniors regularly. Pharmacist Denise Hayes will discuss how to speak with your doctors to better understand and manage your medications safely; how to organize your medications at home; and, best ways to compare medication pricing and services.

This program represents one event within the 2022-23 St. James NEST Speaker Series themed Aging in Place:  What’s Your Plan? Nearly 90% of adults over age 50 — across all age, race, income, and health status categories—want to remain at home and “age in place.”  But staying in your home is a wish, not a plan. The upcoming speaker series will address how to make that wish more likely to become reality.  If you aren’t yet familiar with St. James NEST, its purpose is to provide services and support to St. James' residents to enhance their ability to make aging in place a reality. The 2022-23 Speaker Series offered programs in September, November, January, March and May. Please check the St. James Events Calendar for details on the other programs.
