Program explores common warning signs of Alzheimer's disease


Alzheimer's and other dementias cause memory, thinking and behavior problems that interfere with daily living. The Alzheimer's Association's 10 Warning Signs of Alzheimer's program helps people recognize common signs of the disease and know what to watch for in themselves and others.

Often, the earliest warning signs of Alzheimer's are dismissed as a normal part of the aging process. This free 90-minute program:

● Explores typical age-related changes.

● Describes common signs of Alzheimer's and dementia.

● Offers tips for how to approach someone about memory concerns.

● Explains the importance of early detection and benefits of diagnosis.

● Details possible tests and assessments for the diagnostic process.

● Identifies helpful community resources for diagnosis and those affected.

The 10 Warning Signs of Alzheimer's program is offered in partnership with the ADRC of Oneida County and will be held on Tuesday, June 20, at the ADRC of Oneida County (100 Keenan Street, Rhinelander) from 1 to 2:30 p.m.

To learn more about this program, or to register (registration is appreciated), contact Julie St. Pierre at (715) 352-4091 or [email protected]. Individuals can also register by reaching out to the Alzheimer's Association 24/7 Helpline at 1.800.272.3900 or by visiting: https://bit.ly/rhi10SignsJune23.
