Wondering Jews: A Good Life and a Good Death / Understanding RX interactions

Wednesday, January 8, 2:00pm

A Good Life and a Good Death: How do new ideas, ancient rituals, and intentional approaches allow us to create a more meaningful life—and end of life—for ourselves and loved ones?  Come hear personal and inspiring stories from CNS members including those who participate in the sacred work of the Chevra Kadisha and Shroud Crowd.

You Bet Your Life: Understanding (prescription and other) drug interactions: Interactions with prescription medications can cause hives, dizziness, comas, severe illnesses and even death. EXCLUDING opioids, data from hospital emergency rooms report nearly 500,000 American deaths will occur annually due to prescription drug interactions, and (non-opioid) drug interactions cost Oregon emergency room departments $32 million a year. This educational workshop will answer your questions, offer prescription guidelines and a checklist to help you identify drug interaction symptoms and (lifesaving) steps to take.
