Your future patient is an older adult who will be vulnerable in an emergency situation (snowstorms, heat waves, or gun violence). How can your team prepare people (particularly those with dementia), for these situations? This interprofessional expert panel will address local and national efforts underway to insure first responders, care partners, community organizations and individuals with physical and cognitive limitations are ready when natural or other disasters strike. Participation can be applied toward students’ IP Honors Distinction.

“I liked that the speaker discussed how gun violence is an issue affecting multiple aspects of society, not just individuals involved in violence, or healthcare professionals, or law enforcement professionals. It is something that impacts everyone.” – 51СƳCollege of Osteopathic Medicine alumnus, who attended the Oct. 11, 2023 CAIEP event 'Clinical and community impact of violent crime’
