AARP Driver Safety Presents: We Need To Talk

WE NEED TO TALK

Is there someone in your life that might need to modify their driving habits or even hang up the keys altogether?

Sponsored by AARP Driver Safety, this seminar guides families in determining when it’s time for their loved ones to make this change and provides help in finding the right words when you do have the need to talk with them.

The seminar offers practical tips and advice on three main topics:

1. The Meaning of Driving – Find out what driving means to older adults and the emotions they may face when having to give it up.

2. Observing Driving Skills – Learn to observe your loved one’s driving skills objectively and talk about alternatives to driving.

3. Planning Conversations  - Discover how to have “the talk” while encouraging independence. It’s a difficult conversation to initiate, but with the right tools, you can really make a difference in the life of an older adult.
