The Right Dose: Senior Overdose Prevention Summit
The Franklin County Office on Aging (FCOA) and Multiethnic Advocates for Cultural Competence, Inc. (MACC) presents THE RIGHT DOSE: Senior Overdose Prevention Summit, an interactive summit designed to educate and empower seniors, caregivers, home health nurses, family members, and community advocates about safe medication practices.
Through fireside chat, interactive activations, workshops, and on-site insights, attendees will gain essential knowledge on preventing medication misuse and overdose among older adults. Attendees will also experience the ‘Levels Unlocked’ interactive video game demonstration with Dr. Melita Moore — a fun and educational tool that brings medication safety to life.
This event will bring together Franklin County leaders, community stakeholders, medical professionals (doctors, nurses, and physicians), and health influencers to explore positive practices for proper prescriptions and provide actionable solutions to keep seniors safe.
