HANOVER — Join the social support group designed specifically for family members caring for loved ones living with memory loss.
What is a Memory Café? Initially started in England, this informal setting provides the caregiver a forum for discussion, reducing the isolation often felt by people with dementia, their caregivers, and families. Discussions can range from practical tips for coping with dementia and avoiding caregiver burnout, or information about community resources. Many attendees develop friendships that result in support even outside the memory café setting.
The event will be held on Monday, January 23, from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 Noon at Notre Dame of Mt. Carmel Church, 75 Ridgedale Avenue, Cedar Knolls.
For more information, call (973) 581-1800 or WhippanyArdenCourts@promedica.org.
