“Aging and Memory: The process of memory, how your brain ages, how to distinguish normal changes from dementia, memory strategies and compensation techniques.”

Please join us for a discussion on how to educate healthy older adults about the changes in their cognitive functioning, especially memory. There is so much talk in the media about dementia that older adults are terrified about the possibility of having Alzheimer’s or other dementias.

This talk will focus on the expected changes in functioning with age, what one can do about it and compensation strategies to boost memory.
