Are You Caring for a Loved One with Dementia?

The Town of Colonie Senior Resources Department is sponsoring the Savvy Caregiver Program conducted by the Eddy Alzheimer's Services. This is a free, six-week program for family caregivers designed to give the key skills and knowledge needed when caring for a loved one with dementia. The program trains family members for the role of caregiving in four main areas: managing daily life, managing behaviors, managing own well-being and managing resources.

The program will be held on Wednesdays, July 20th through August 31st from 10am-12pm at the Crossings. RSVP to Eddy Alzheimer's Services at 238-4164.
