Healthy Aging: Food Safety for Older Adults
Wednesday, May 8
2 to 3:10 p.m. Eastern
May is Older Americans Month, a time to recognize the contributions of our older citizens. It’s also the perfect time to talk about food safety risks for older adults. Adults aged 65 and over are particularly vulnerable to foodborne illness and are more likely to be hospitalized or die from it. According to the CDC, nearly half of people aged 65 and older who have a lab-confirmed illness from Salmonella, Campylobacter, Listeria, or E. coli are hospitalized.
Join us for this free webinar where experts will share resources and discuss communication strategies for reaching adults over 65 with vital food safety information. Attendees will also learn about new focus group research on older adult’s knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors related to food safety at home.
Guest speakers will include Kelsey Schwarz, Ph.D. of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Kimberly Brown Smith, MHSA of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, and Aaron Lavallee of the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
