Baptist Golden Triangle helps community understand dementia

Baptist Golden Triangle recently hosted a free lunch program about dementia featuring Stan McCarver, community outreach specialist with the Mississippi Alzheimer’s Association. About 60 attendees learned how to make difficult conversations about dementia easier. Topics included going to the doctor, deciding when to stop driving, and making legal and financial plans.

The Alzheimer’s Association has a toll-free, 24/7 helpline for anyone who needs care consultation and support. Just call 800-272-3900 or go to www.alz.org.
