Fall seminar to provide information on Mild
Cognitive Impairment
As we age,
we can all expect subtle changes to take place in our memory and
thinking. But
dementia is not a normal part of aging. This upcoming virtual
program will offer clarity around the diagnostic process, what
living well with a diagnosis can look like, treatments on the
horizon, and how caregivers can best support their loved ones.
