Alzheimer’s Support Information

The November program speakers offered very good information for caregivers of Alzheimer’s and dementia patients. Karen Kinsler, Development Director Central Georgia Alzheimer’s Association, discussed the many services that are available for caregivers of persons with Alzheimer’s disease. Jimmy Hall, husband of women with the disease, told his story of the difficulties caring for his wife. He urged caregivers to seek help early. He currently serves as a support group leader. A listing of the local services and locations of the support groups is available for download. Contact http://alz.org/Georgia/ for more information.
