Health Talks is a new workshop series at Baycrest’s Centre for Health Information (CHI), organized by the Patient, Family and Consumer Education Program. Health Talks aims to improve your understanding of consumer health information and increase your awareness of false or misleading publications. Each month, a Baycrest health professional will present and discuss a consumer health article from various sources, such as the news and magazines, on a topic related to aging and wellness. The Health Talks series is sponsored by the Ada Starkman Community Lecture Series Endowment Fund. If you have any questions, please contact Suzanne Pede, Project Coordinator, Patient, Family and Consumer Education (PFCE) at SPede@baycrest.org.
