Savvy Social Media for Healthcare Information and Caregiver Support

United Way of Northern New Jersey Caregivers Coalition invites you to attend this free Munch & Learn presentation, generously hosted by Avalon Assisted Living at Hillsborough.

Do you wonder if the website you are using for research is credible? Does caregiving make it difficult to get out of the house for support groups?

Social media is an excellent resource for information, support and advocacy. This munch and learn program will walk you through using online communities, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. You will learn what type of information and support is available on each platform, how to determine if a site is trustworthy, and strategies for using social media in your caregiving journey.

Presented by Deb Hallisey, a caregiver knowledge expert and advocate for older adults and their families. She’s also the creator of the website Advocate for Mom and Dad. Deb’s mission is to build a community that helps families determine their best answers to the questions of “what do I do?” and “where do I start?”.

We Hope to See You There
