When to Give Up the Keys?

Giving up driving is often a hard decision for older adults. Our own Mata Carlson will tell us why she decided to give up driving in her seventies, what people need to think about when considering the decision, and the advantages of not driving. Mata will explain Dial-A-Ride, a community transport option she has used since 2019. Do you have concerns about a family member or a friend who is driving but shouldn’t be? This session will give you tips about the conversation you need to have. Come to learn about this challenge and to discuss.
