Description
Medicine is changing daily with expanding concepts and abbreviations. Explore how medicine is evolving in ways that directly affect your life, your health, and your decisions about care. In this engaging course, we’ll look at why healthcare has become so expensive and how new tools like artificial intelligence, telemedicine, wearable devices, and advanced treatments such as gene and cell therapies are reshaping diagnosis and treatment. We will discuss these innovations in clear, non-technical language, focusing on what they mean for older adults: access to care, privacy of your health information, fairness in who benefits, and how the healthcare workforce is adapting. Through an interactive session and open discussion, you’ll gain the knowledge and confidence to ask better questions, evaluate new medical options, and participate more fully in decisions about your own care and the future of healthcare in your community.
