Somerville Elks, Bridgewater

Join us for an interdisciplinary panel that brings together healthcare, hospital case management, aging life care, legal, financial, and guardianship professionals to strengthen community understanding of proactive planning, care coordination, and crisis prevention for aging adults.

The goal is to preserve autonomy, reduce crisis-driven decision-making, and ensure dignity through early planning and coordinated systems of support.

Lunch will be served.
