On October 15th, Humboldt & Area seniors were treated to a day of lunch and learning at our one-stop educational event held in partnership with The Elizabeth. Information booths were present and complimentary blood pressure tests were available courtesy of Country Care and flu and Covid vaccines were available, courtesy of Shoppers Drug Mart Humboldt. Attendees listened to presentations from professionals in their fields on the topics of:

Dementia, communication and safety, presented by Alzheimer Society of Saskatchewan
