The Salem Council on Aging is continuing its new informational series to address ‘Aging Matters’ affecting seniors.

The first session held in early March was titled General Health Awareness, and included such topics as how to identify and react to signs of a stroke, cardiac arrest or influenza. Presented by Doug Devine, Director of Salem Fire Department’s Emergency Medical Services, this forum was conducted in an informal coffee and conversation format.

The next session will be on Wednesday, April 9 from 10:00 to 11:30 am and is titled ‘Lets Address You Aging Concerns‘.  The meeting takes place at the Millville Arms Community Center, 44 Millville Street in Salem.  This session is hosted by Salem PD Elderly Affairs Office Shalyn Spencer and Salem FD Director of Emergency Medical Services.  The forum will be conducted in an informal, conversational format to directly address your concerns and direct you to solutions and resources.  Coffee and pastries will be served.

The Salem Council on Aging (SCOA) is proud to sponsor this event. SCOA ‘s mission is to promote, develop, and reinforce programs and facilities which support and enhance the health, well-being, dignity and independence of our senior citizens of Salem, NH.
