The Mystic & Noank Library and Our Shoreline Community Association (OSCA) present a talk on Understanding Alzheimer’s: Do’s and Don’ts for Caregivers on Wednesday, January 22, 2014 from 6:30 – 7:30 p.m. Robert E. P. Elmer, III, Master Trainer in Alzheimer’s Care, will talk about the signs and symptoms of Alzheimer’s and how to understand the disease as well as the needs and care of a growing number of patients and caregivers.

After construction of their first dedicated community for those with Alzheimer’s dementia, Elmer became a Master Trainer in Alzheimer’s care. An accomplished senior care and Alzheimer’s care specialist, Elmer recently founded Care for Caregivers, LLC, a training and consulting group for Alzheimer’s caregivers.
