Please reserve your lunch hour on Thursday, October 18, to attend a “Brown Bag Lunch” with guest speaker Cindy Conkins, Senior Planner at the Arrowhead Area Agency on Aging. Her topic will be “Caregivers and the Workplace: Help! My dad has fallen and I can’t come to work!”
An increasing number of family caregivers are trying to balance taking care of a loved one and remaining a productive member of the workforce. How does this affect workers? Their families? Their place of work? And how can workplaces best accommodate the demands on the caregiver? It’s an important topic for families, staff and management.
The Chamber of Commerce is sponsoring the event at the AmericInn. An excellent lunch is provided by Lenard’s. The cost is $9. Please RSVP the Chamber of Commerce at 218.283.9400.
