Please join us on July 17 for a FREE Conversations for Caring live CEU webinar, The Emotional Effects and Practical Challenges of Driver Cessation with Dr. Vanya Jones and Michele Ellicks. This course will explore the emotional dimensions of driver cessation, addressing the complex feelings of loss, anxiety, and the change in identity that often accompany the transition. We will also learn about resources currently available to older drivers with a focus on how family members can sensitively approach a conversation about discontinuing driving with an older family member or loved one. The goal is to equip caregivers, family members, and professionals with the tools to support older adults through this challenging life change.

Thanks for this! I gave up driving about 2 years ago. Fortunately I live now at Residence at Riverbend in Ipswich (assisted living community with about 80 residents). They provide transportation to drug stores, grocery stores (tho we have 3 meals a day…but everyone has a wish special treats). Glad you’re helping seniors this way! Kathy Lique
