News from Capitol Hill: The House just unanimously passed the bipartisan Accelerating Access to Dementia & Alzheimer’s Provider Training (AADAPT) Act. 🎆 This bill improves dementia education and trainings for primary care providers — addressing knowledge gaps and workforce capacity issues. Thank you to our #ENDALZ advocates who are working hard to grow support for this legislation. #AADAPTAct

No senior should ever feel alone. DOEA is grateful for the First Lady’s leadership in launching a new initiative that connects faith communities with seniors across the state, offering companionship and reminding those in need that they are seen, cherished, and supported.

For many seniors, the greatest gift we can give is our time. Today, @SHarrisFL, Madison and I announced a new initiative connecting churches with nursing homes and assisted living communities across Florida — creating opportunities to spend time with seniors, to hear their lifetime of experiences, and to remind them that people genuinely care about their well-being. No one should have to face life's final chapter alone.

Weather changes can be tough on tires. Take a moment to check tire pressure, tread, and look for signs of wear or damage.

We joined @SenRickScott and the @SenateAging Committee to discuss how prescription drug shortages are impacting older Americans. We're pushing for stronger solutions, including better supply chain visibility and a reserve of drug ingredients to help prevent future shortages.
