This is my community lecture for older adults that was given on May 16th, 2023 to members of the incredible nonprofit organization, WISE & Healthy Aging.
This project that was made possible thanks to our incredible UCLA/ VA Geriatrics Fellowship Department. I wanted to share it on YouTube so everyone can have access to it. Whether you're someone who loves their parents, grandparents, great grandparents, or if you're an older adult, medical student, resident, fellow, or attending, you will find this extremely useful!!
