Cleveland, Ohio Business Owner Selected to Speak at National Caregiving Conference

CLEVELAND - Nov. 27, 2016 - PRLog -- Keeping Us Safe is excited to announce that Matt Gurwell, founder of Keeping Us Safe, LLC., has been invited to speak at this year's National Caregiving Conference in Chicago, Illinois on December 3, 2016.

The goal of the conference is to connect professional and family caregivers with support and solutions, to empower them with insights and information and to entertain the attendees with engaging and enlightening presentations.  The conference is also meant to spark important conversations about what supports caregivers need in our communities, workplaces and in our health care system.

Keeping Us safe is a national organization headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio, that provides services to the families of older drivers as they become concerned about an aging parent's safe driving abilities.

A recognized thought leader in the emotional world of older driver safety, Gurwell says "It is a true honor to have been selected to participate in this conference. Caregivers, so often unknown and unnoticed, have long been the very fabric that holds our families together during some of our most difficult times.  The care, support and love caregivers render to those in need is a gift that many of us simply do not possess."

The foundation of Keeping Us Safe's "Beyond Driving with Dignity" program is the Enhanced Self-Assessment Program for older drivers, which is a 3-hour individualized program that empowers older drivers with diminished driving skills to make the right decision to retire from driving.

Gurwell, a retired Ohio State Trooper, explains that "The 'Beyond Driving with Dignity' program provides peace of mind to families and caregivers who are concerned about a loved-one's driving, bringing calm to what can be a very sensitive, emotional and sometimes divisive family issue."

Gurwell adds "Caregivers are the silent heroes amongst us, always willing to provide a guiding hand or a listening ear to those in need.  There is no doubt that a special place in Heaven is being held for family caregivers."

The conference will take place on Saturday, December 3, 2016, at the Chicago Marriott O'Hare.  More information on the conference is available at:
