November 16th: National Memory Screening Day


The Alzheimer’s Foundation of America is holding its annual National Memory Screening Day this upcoming Tuesday.

A screening is not a diagnosis, or in-depth testing, but a systematic way to look at areas of concern and determine if you or your loved one is at risk for dementia. It is also a great way to examine memory right now. Even if you are not having trouble the screen is helpful for future comparisons.

More than 2,000 locations nationally will provide the opportunity on Tuesday, November 16th for memory screening. Click on the link below for more detials.

Take this opportunity and screen your parents’ memory, your grandparents’, and your memory. This valuable service could help for earlier diagnosis of dementia, and guess what…the medical treatment available right now for Alzheimer’s and other types of dementias is MOST EFFECTIVE in early stages. So why wait?
