Presented by the Alzheimer’s Association and RiverWoods

Have you ever wondered if forgetfulness is just a natural part of aging or something more? Are you unsure about how to initiate a conversation about memory concerns with your loved ones? Well, you’re not alone.

Join RiverWoods for an educational webinar that offers clarity and guidance on a topic that touches so many families: the early signs of Alzheimer’s disease.

In this complimentary, 60-minute session, you’ll learn how to:

• Identify the difference between normal aging and concerning changes
• Approach a loved one about memory concerns
• Understand the value of early detection and diagnosis
• Access trusted resources for support and next steps

Presented by Ann Romney, from the Alzheimer’s Association®, this program is designed for anyone who wants to be better informed—family members, friends, caregivers, or those with concerns about their memory.

Knowledge is empowering. Join us from the comfort of home and take an important step toward understanding.

Our Presenter:

In addition to presenting programs, Anne has led Legacy Storytelling programs that bring people in the early stage of dementia together with student scribes who listen and write up the memories that are shared. Anne has training in support groups for caregivers and sees each program as an opportunity to both educate, support, and provide resources to those who participate.
