Private Alzheimer’s care planning meetings available in Jamestown

BUFFALO — Hearing a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease or other dementia usually opens up a number of questions, rather than providing answers. Those concerns, as well as suggestions to plan for future needs, can be discussed during private care planning meetings with social workers from the Alzheimer’s Association Western New York Chapter.

The Chapter’s dementia care experts will be available at the Jamestown Venture Forthe office at 421 E. Second St., Suite 2F in Jamestown on Thursday, June 22 from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Those diagnosed with dementia, their care partners and their families are encouraged to discuss care plans, information about local resources, managing behaviors and overcoming day-to-day challenges.

To ensure ample time and materials for the private meetings, reservations are required for these private, no-cost consultations by calling the Chapter at 1-800-272-3900. For additional information about Alzheimer’s disease and other types of dementia, community resources and educational programs, visit the Chapter website at alz.org/WNY.

This program is funded in part through a grant from the New York State Department of Health.
