As people get older, some
changes in memory, thinking and behavior are normal. But these changes might be
a sign of something more serious, such as Alzheimer’s disease. Penn State
Extension and the Alzheimer’s Association will conduct a 10 Warning Signs of
Alzheimer’s webinar from noon to 1 p.m., December 5. Instructors will
describe what is typical with aging and what is not.
Participants can discover what is normal when it comes to memory, thinking and behavior as people age; common warning signs of Alzheimer’s or dementia; tips on how to talk to someone about memory concerns; why early detection is important, and the benefits of a diagnosis; and what tests and assessments are part of the diagnostic process.
Admission is free when registering by Dec. 5 at Extension.psu.edu/10-warning-signs-of-alzheimers-disease-webinar. Those that register will receive a link to watch the recording of the program. For more information, call 814-359-7484 or email food, families and communities extension educator Rozi Horvath at [email protected].
