Description

Join us for this virtual Community Forum to discuss Alzheimer’s and Dementia in your community. We’ll begin by sharing some basic information and getting everyone on the same page with the terminology we use to describe Alzheimer’s and dementia. But then want to hear about your experiences with the disease, especially how this disease is affecting the community – where you live, work and play.
Topics included:
• The Mission of the Alzheimer’s Association
• Facts and Figures about Alzheimer’s
• Alzheimer’s and Dementia – One and the Same?
• Who is at Risk?
• The Impact on Caregivers
• The Impact on the Nation
• Care and Support Resources of the Alzheimer’s Association
• How and Where to Get a Diagnosis
• Alzheimer’s in Our Local Communities
Your input will enable us to better understand the condition in your community and come up with solutions to reach more people.
