Ageism is one of society’s most ingrained prejudices, affecting not only how we view older adults but how we see ourselves as we age.
For caregivers, understanding the impact of ageism is crucial in providing the best care and promoting well-being for those you support. This webinar will explore the power of language, attitude, and belief in shaping how we age. Learn how adopting positive age beliefs can increase longevity, enhance quality of life, and change the trajectory for both caregivers and care recipient.
By shifting the narrative and challenging harmful stereotypes, you can help instill a deep sense of value and respect in yourself and those you care for. Join us in creating a future where aging is embraced, not feared.
