Join us to learn the latest about Older Adult Services offered by JFS. As we age, some things in life become more challenging. JFS is here with comprehensive and compassionate care to help older adults live healthy, independent and meaningful lives. Programs address aging-related issues such as support to maintain a home, transportation, health, mobility, grief, isolation, emotional concerns, and more.
This interactive session will help answer your questions. This program is also appropriate for adult children who want to learn how to assist their parents.
This program is free, but reservations are requested by calling The Heritage Center reception desk at 913-327-8044.
