Understanding Alzheimer's and Dementia
Thursday, 27 April, 2023
12:00 PM - 1:00 PM
Many families in our community are struggling with Alzheimer's or dementia, whether they've been diagnosed themselves or are caring for a loved one with the disease.
When someone is diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, friends and family have many questions:
- What does the diagnosis mean?
- What kinds of plans need to be made?
- What resources are available to help?
As the disease progresses, new questions reflect growing needs for skills, programs, and services.
Please join us on Thursday, April 27 from 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM EDT as the Alzheimer's Association presents "Understanding Alzheimer's and Dementia," an in-person event held in the Gilman Center, Middletown Campus. It is free.
You will learn about the impact of Alzheimer's disease in our community; the difference between Alzheimer's and dementia; stages and risk factors; current research and treatments available for some symptoms; and Alzheimer's Association resources.
Remember: Alzheimer's disease is not a normal part of aging, and help is available.
