November is National Family Caregivers Month. Please take a moment to acknowledge the people in your life who are caring for family members who are ill, older and frail, have a physical disability, or children. Often these caregivers work and take care of their homes, and their own challenges in addition to providing care for family members. They deserve the support of friends, family and coworkers.
Do you provide care for your aging parent? Do you help him or her with daily activities of living, housework or medical needs? Then VistaLynk wants to hear from you! We need adults who are willing to share their caregiving stories with us as we continue to build programming designed to help others in similar caregiving situations. Contact us today if you’d like to help us, help others in need!
Inclusion Companies LLC, will partner with Kroger for the first Wellness Your Way Festival, Oct. 4-7, 2018 at the Duke Energy Convention Center in Cincinnati, Ohio. VistaLynk is a proud participant and sponsor of the festival themed around discovering tools for a healthier lifestyle, encouraging people to adopt a more holistic approach to health – from their nutrition to their exercise and personalized medical needs.
Brand new in the New Year, VistaLynk will launch the 2nd in the Connections™ series – a video and workbook curriculum exploring the possibilities in life that arise from having more time and fewer commitments. Expect an interactive format.
Fresh off the editing reel, VistaLynk launches, “Connections: Creating What’s Next.” This update to “Partnerships in Motion” provides refreshed video segments online and live. This interactive program focuses on supporting older adults in living life to the fullest and recognizing the possibilities that arise with age. It challenges people’s preconceived notions of aging and helps explore possibilities that really exist.
Contact us to schedule an eldercare seminar or workshop for your group or organization.
