Activities for retired seniors

Hello!

My parents are retiring and bored. I was wondering if anyone knows of any learning activities or social activities geared for seniors.

Like example gym hours for seniors, mah jong, or learning new languages for seniors or maybe learning potteries or new sports.

Does anyone know if the local universities offer courses geared for the more senior citizens?

Mentally exhausted during clinic

I work in a more cognitive specialty and lately, ive been struggling to remain focused mentally during clinic.

I have a hard time focusing on what patients tell me when they talk about things that my brain has already dismissed as irrelevant. I mix up words more often. When i do my routine review of system, i find myself asking the same questions twice or thrice its embarrassing. I also have less patience for tangential answers.

Thank goodness ai scribe is there to record and i can review the conversation after the visit.

Healthwise, i think im fine. I sleep well and dont have any problems on the weekends and during vacations.

Its just during the afternoons when i struggle. So i think my problem is i am darn exhausted by 2pm - emotionally and mentally. Oh yeah, and i go home and have to make more decisions at home 🤪

Im not the only one struggling with this right? What do people do? Is it time to work less because its not fair to the people scheduled at 400pm?
