Mulberry Gardens’ support group on July 10 offers respite care

Living with Alzheimer’s disease or a related memory disorder can be challenging and feel like a burden for families and caregivers.

Mulberry Gardens is located at 58 Mulberry St. in the Plantsville section of Southington.

Respite care is available during the meeting at Mulberry Gardens’ Adult Day Center. Please call Marie Terzak, retirement counselor, at 860.276.1020 several days in advance to make arrangements.
