The 10 Warning Signs of Alzheimer’s-Zoom program

Thursday, February 20

7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Alzheimer’s is not normal aging; it’s a disease of the brain that causes problems with memory, thinking and behavior.

This course helps caregivers recognize common signs of the disease in themselves and others and identify next steps to take, including how to talk to their doctor. Discover the difference between Alzheimer’s and dementia, Alzheimer’s disease stages and risk factors, current research, treatments available to address some symptoms and Alzheimer’s Association resources available to you. This is a Zoom Program.
