AARP Hearing Center
From urinary tract infections to health care surrogates, we’ll discuss some of the medical topics we may encounter on our aging journey.
About the Event
As we age or care for older adults, we often face common medical conditions that can be misunderstood or misdiagnosed. We’ll cover these and other important health care topics for older adults in this Mini Med School session.
Some of the questions and issues we’ll address:
- Is it really dementia?
- Is a urinary tract infection dangerous?
- Why do I need a “health care” surrogate and how do they work?
- Are regular exams really necessary?
- The challenge of “quality” of life versus “quantity” of life
Learn how to get the most out of your doctor or hospital visit! There is a lot to cover in this area so come with your questions and concerns.
