The Mission of Yavapai Regional Medical Center is to provide you and your family with comprehensive, high-quality healthcare – and to provide that care in ways that meet the needs of as many people as possible. One thing that really sets YRMC apart – aside from exceptional care – is the commitment that YRMC makes to provide comprehensive health and wellness education programs to the community. And many YRMC programs are free of charge. For a complete list of programs and events, download this month's calendar on-line at yrmchealthconnect.org.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 6
Coping with the Holiday Blues
FREE
The celebration of holidays can be a joyful event for many although sometimes stressful. Many older adults, however, may struggle with the holidays. If one has a recent loss of a loved one or family living a long distance away there may be feelings of sadness and loneliness. Gift-giving can be stressful if one’s financial situation has changed. Older adults may no longer be able or even want to host family events. This presentation will focus on the things that may cause us to dread the holidays and practical ideas that can help us create a more positive experience. Presented by Connie Boston, Senior Peer Program.
WHEN: 2:30–3:30 p.m., Las Fuentes Senior Living, 1035 Scott Drive, Prescott.
