Women become more prone to urinary tract infections as they age – by age 65, one in ten women experience a UTI at least once a year, and by age 85 the number jumps to one in three. Recognizing the symptoms and receiving early treatment is key to avoiding significant complications.  On Tuesday October 15th the Pembroke Council on Aging is hosting Honoring Women’s Health, a one-hour program on prevention and symptom identification.  Speaker Roseann Potter, R.N, B.S.N, will teach you how to recognize the signs of UTI induced dementia, how to advocate for yourself at the doctor’s office and the most effective ways to prevent infections. The presentation starts at 10am and takes place at the Pembroke Community Center. There will be a Q & A session and helpful materials to bring home with you.
