VCUHS Eldercare Education and Support Group hosts Care and Communication with your Aging Parent with Teresa Steinfatt, Home Instead Senior Care of Richmond
VCU Health System employees and VCU employees are invited to a brown bag roundtable discussion about “Care and Communication with your Aging Parent – the 40/70 Rule” on Tuesday, April 20th, from noon to 1:00 p.m. Our very own Teresa Steinfatt of Home Instead Senior Care of Richmond will be presenting as special guest speaker.
Teresa Steinfatt
Teresa will be providing lessons from the 40-70 RULE® programs and emotional support services which are offered by Home Instead to develop open discussions between families relating to providing care to parents and other various senior topics. These programs and services are intended to bridge the communication gap between adult children and their senior loved ones.
- What does a grown daughter say to her dad when he’s hit a light pole with the car?
- How does an adult son ask his mom if she’s taking her medications like she should?
The 40-70 Rule is designed to help adult children and their aging parents deal with sensitive topics that often make conversations difficult. The idea is that if you’re 40, or your parents are 70, it’s time to start talking about these or similar senior and aging topics.
As part of VCU Health System’s commitment to its employees and those they care for, VCUHS Geriatric Services and VCUHS Human Resources are inviting their VCUHS and VCU employees to this talk which is part of their Eldercare Education and Support Group.
