Free Educational seminar on "caring for Someone with Memory Loss" @ North Brunswick Library Wednesday Oct. 14th @ 7pm.

Goldenview Living and the North Brunswick Library would like area residents to please join us on Wednesday, October 14th from 7:00pm -8:00pm at the North Brunswick library, located at 880 Hermann Road, North Brunswick NJ, 08902 for a free education seminar on “Caring for Someone with Memory Loss”, Presented by Amy Matthews of Engaging Alzheimer’s. Please call 732.820.9700 by October 13th to RSVP.

The number of individuals with Alzheimer’s disease and dementia is increasing and so is the number of caregivers. Often times, caregivers become overwhelmed and lack the knowledge about this disease and ways in which to better care for their loved ones. This program will briefly describe Alzheimer’s and dementia as well as go in depth about different caregiving techniques caregivers may utilize throughout the different stages of the disease. Lastly, it will review the different alternative living options that are available to those with the disease.

Goldenview Living provides quality dementia care and structured activities by compassionate and dedicated care providers in a safe and supportive community residence that they can call home. We deliver a person-centered approach to care that respects and honors each resident’s individuality thus maintaining his or her quality of life. Coming soon in North Brunswick Township: Giving those with memory loss a place to call home and giving their loved ones some peace of mind.
