Forum explores preparedness

SANDPOINT — Are you prepared for a home emergency?

Today’s Geezer Forum will tackle that very topic with the assistance of Janine Wilson, a healthcare liaison for the Panhandle Health District; and Sara Nixon, an emergency medical technician with Bonner County Emergencies Medical Services.

Each of them will share from their specialties just how you can prepare yourself for a wide variety of emergencies, from potential community disasters to in-home medical emergencies (or vice-versa).

The forum is held in the Community Room in the Columbia Bank building, 414 Church, from 2:30-4 p.m.

Geezer Forum is hosted by Paul Graves, writer of “Dear Geezer” in The Daily Bee. It is sponsored by Elder Advocates.
