Memory screens will be conducted from 12:30 to 2:00pm. Community members can have a free Brain Wellness Check/ Memory Screen conducted at the Aging and Disability Resource Center if you are concerned about your memory. The screening tool does not diagnose Alzheimer’s disease or other types of dementia, but identifies how your brain is functioning in a single moment. Screenings take about 15 to 20 minutes to be completed.
From 2:00 to 3:30pm one can participate in Dementia Live. Participating in Dementia Live results in a deeper understanding of what it is like to live with cognitive impairment and sensory change. The simulation will take approximately 20 – 30 minutes. If you would like to schedule an appointment time or would like more information contact Bonnie Beam-Stratz at 608-324-3600 or bbeam@gchsd.org.
