Caregivers, family, and friends of persons with dementia are invited to the new, monthly Dementia Caregiver Support Group in Crosby. The first session is planned for 1 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 28, at Cuyuna Regional Medical Center’s Super One Clinic Conference Room.
Presented by the Alzheimer’s Association in partnership with CRMC, the support groups are conducted by trained facilitators. They are a safe place to develop a support system; exchange practical information on caregiving challenges and possible solutions; talk through issues and ways of coping; share feelings, needs, and concerns; and learn about community resources.
Meetings are scheduled the fourth Tuesday of each month. To learn more, contact Kent O’Grady at kent.ogrady@gmail.com or 612-868-7260 or CRMC social workers at 218-546-2357.
