ticipating in this new
holiday festival may contact

,Free Web conference helps caregivers
The holidays are a good
time for family caregivers
returning home to tune into
the signs that an older adult
may need extra help to
remain safe at home.
To learn more about those
signs, register for the free
Home for the Holidays Web
conference, moderated by a
representative from the
Home Instead Senior Care
network, hosted by the Amer-
ican Society on Aging, and
co-sponsored by the National
Family Caregivers Associa-
tion and the National
Alliance for Caregiving.
The hour-long Web con-
ference will be available
in the United States and
Canada, and offered on two
dates and times: Nov. 15, at
1 p.m. Eastern Time (10 a.m.
Pacific Time), and Dec. 5, at
8 p.m. Eastern Time (5 p.m.
Pacific Time). To register,
go to caregiverstress.com/
familyedlcation..
Director of Strategic
Alliances Mary Alexander, of
• Home Instead Inc., the fran-
chiser of the Home Instead
Senior Care uetwork, will
moderate the Web con-
ference. Alexander is a
family caregiver .and a
certified senior adviser.
"It's easy for busy family
caregivers to overlook the
subtle signs that a senior
loved one needs assistance,"
Alexander said. "But the
• holidays, when many return
to their childhood homes
with aging parents, can
highlight those red flags,"
she noted.
"Signs of potential trouble
can be evident in a senior's
home -- such.as spoiled food
in the refrigerator and piles
of unpaid bills -- or persona !
indicators such as episodes
of confusion or dirty and
unkempt clothing," she
added,
The Web conference will
feature information about
countering senior resistance
to assistance as well as re-
sources that can help family
caregivers and senior care
professionals.
