Is it Dementia or Alzheimer's?

Did you know that dementia is not the same thing as Alzheimer’s disease? Most people don’t realize the differences between the two, and that’s okay. However, if you know the differences between Alzheimer’s disease, other types of dementia, and unusual cognitive decline, you can better advocate for yourself or your loved one.

Join us as we learn about the differences between Alzheimer’s disease and dementia, including:

  • What signs of cognitive decline to look for
  • When to schedule a doctor visit to talk about it
  • How to plan for the future if there is a diagnosis.

 

When: Tuesday, January 16

Time: 2:00 PM
