As the population ages, more people are being impacted by Alzheimer's disease. A day devoted to helping those who care for Alzheimer's patients will take place in Tallahassee this Saturday, Feb. 24.
The half-day session is being hosted by the Alzheimer's Project, which is headed up by John Trombetta.
"We're going to start at 8 o'clock at the FSU College of Medicine in the atrium and we'll go until 1 o'clock. There is no charge for the event, but we do ask that you register because we'll be providing lunch. We'll also have 10 or 12 tables of vendors set up to provide services for caregivers in a variety of capacities."
The goal of the session is to provide useful information and resources to reduce the stress and struggle of those in a caregiving role.
