OSHER 979 - Embrace Aging - It's a Once-in-a-lifetime Opportunity

This class will demystify aging and look at how we can enjoy a healthier, happier and more prepared life as we age. Topics will include: biology of the aging brain and how that biology affects the risk for cognitive impairment (dementia); the ways to identify and manage illness (mental and physical) as we age; the role of the family and caregivers; how to address and plan for the end of life (what's important, what's not); and identification of community resources for the aging population.
