Alzheimers-Know the 10 Signs
We had a very good turn out for the baked potato and salad bar night. Following the meal, Dudley and Eileen's daughter, Mary Ehrenreich who is an outreach coordinator for the Alzheimer's Association shared some very helpful information on "Understanding Alzheimer's and Dementia - Know the 10 Signs". The community was invited to the informational meeting by the Alzheimer's Association and about 14 people came. Mary has a master's degree in gerontology and it was evident that she knows her stuff! It was very educational and interesting. If you know or hear of anyone dealing with Alzheimer's or feel they are in the beginning stages, Mary has educational material and contacts that would be very helpful to them or a caregiver. Not all memory loss or confusion is necessarily Alzheimer's and it's important to know the difference.
