ALFA is supporting National Memory Screening Day on November 19, 2013, an annual initiative of the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America (AFA) in which qualified healthcare professionals at local sites nationwide provide free, confidential memory screenings and educational materials to the public.
Screening sites include Alzheimer’s agencies, assisted living residences, long-term care communities, doctors’ offices, hospitals, senior centers, Ys, pharmacies and other community venues. The screening results do not represent a diagnosis; individuals with below-normal scores or those who still have concerns are encouraged to pursue further medical evaluation.
Please sign up as a screening site today by visiting www.nationalmemoryscreening.org.
For more information, contact Melissa Austen, AFA National Programs Manager, at [email protected] or 866-232-8484.
