Deprescribing to Optimize Medication Use

Tuesday, January 27 | 11:30 a.m – 1:00 p.m.
Geneva Hall
Registration is Required

Deprescribing is the careful and intentional process of tapering or stopping medications that may no longer be necessary, effective, or safe. It is not about reducing care—it’s about improving care by thoughtfully reassessing medications with medical provider input.

Dr. DeLon Canterbury, PharmD, BCGP, is a leading expert in deprescribing for older adults, particularly those at risk of falls, cognitive issues, or medication overload. He also serves on the Professional Advisory Council on Modern Aging in Place.

To learn more about deprescribing, WMPC Health Ministry and Mental Health and Wellness invite you to join them for a Lunch and Learn event with Dr. DeLon Canterbury on Tuesday, January 27 from 11:30 a.m – 1:00 p.m. in Geneva Hall. If you would like to order a box lunch, the cost is $16 (scholarship available). You are also welcome to bring your lunch or to come for only the program. Registration is required by January 22. Questions, please contact Health Ministry Coordinator, Martha Grove Hipskind at mghipskind@whitememorial.org.
