Care Managers Panel

L.A. Housing – A Tale of 4 Seniors
Tuesday, January 12th, 1:30 p.m. – 3:00 p.m.
Independence through Interdependence living
Our aging population is increasing at a rapid pace which escalates the need for housing. Do you have an extra bedroom, would you like some companionship, what about adding to your income…? See video showcasing seniors who live together to some money and make friends.

How to be a Smart Patient
Monday, January 25th, 10:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.
Help your doctor meet your needs instead of theirs
Aging often intensifies the number of doctors and frequency we see them. Most people hear only half of what our doctor says and forget at least another fourth. It is imperative, especially as health issues increase, we are proactive patients, take control of our medical treatment and know our options. Doctors need educating by us. This work shop will give you the necessary tools and information you need.

Village members attend for no charge. There will be a fee of $5 for non-members.

All programs will be held at the Pasadena Village, 236 W. Mountain Ave., Suite 104, Pasadena. RSVP for the programs by calling (626) 765-6037 or emailing lina@pasadenavillage.org.
