Free Memory Screening Program in Hicksville

Residents can get their memory checked by professionals during a free memory screening program at the Hicksville Public Library this month.

The screening will consist of a series of questions to gauge memory, language and thinking skills.

The program, organized by Senator Jack M. Martins and the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America, will take place on Tuesday, Sept. 20 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Hicksville Public Library is located at 169 Jerusalem Ave.

The memory screening will take approximately 10 minutes and is confidential. All participants will be provided with the results on-site.

Please note the results are not a diagnosis, but they can suggest if someone should see a physician for a full evaluation.

The program is open to all residents. Appointments will be scheduled on a first come, first served basis.

Call Senator Martins’ office at 516-746-5924 to schedule an appointment.
