Use hands on tools to develop a plan for healthy aging. And then\, at 2pm\, explore ways that Alzheimer’s and other dementias affect an individual’s ability to communicate across different stages\, and get tips to better communicate with people living with the disease with “Effective  Communication Strategies”. Presenter Melissa Grenier\, the Alzheimer’s Association’s Regional Manager for the State of New Hampshire\, has worked in the areas of elder guardianship\, home care\, geriatric psychiatric care\, and long-term care for over eighteen years.  Both programs are available in person\, or virtually.  Additionally\, the Alzheimer’s Association free\, 24/7 Helpline (800.272.3900) offers around-the-clock support for caregivers and families impacted by Alzheimer’s and all dementia.
