SUMMARY:Live Well with Safe Medication Use (Farsi/English)
DESCRIPTION:Understand how medications change as you age\nAs we age\, our bodies process medicines differently. A dose that once worked well may now be too strong or less effective. This practical workshop explains why those changes happen and outlines actions you and your health-care provider can consider so your current medications match your body’s needs. The session is delivered in Farsi and English to make information clear and accessible. \nWhat you’ll learn\n\nWhy ageing affects medications: how body changes can alter effectiveness and side effects.\nPartnering with your provider: ways to discuss dose\, timing\, and whether any medicines might be adjusted or stopped.\nMedication reviews: when and how to review your medicines to keep them safe and useful.\nNoticing concerns: what to pay attention to and when to seek advice.\n\nPresented by a speaker from the Seniors’ Health & Wellness Institute (COSCO). \nWho should attend\nOlder adults and community members interested in staying safe and informed about everyday medication use. All are welcome to join and bring questions. \nEvent details\n\nDate: Tuesday\, October 28\, 2025\nTime: 10:30 a.m.–12:30 p.m.\nLocation: MOSAIC HQ — Classroom 1 (5575 Boundary Rd\, Vancouver\, BC V5R 2P9)\nLanguages: Farsi and English\n\nLooking for more support?\nIf you want more support with healthy ageing and community connection\, check the MOSAIC Seniors page.
