Do you remember the last thing you forgot?

It’s okay and normal to forget things occasionally. Everyone does. If it happens more than you would like, or if you notice a change in your memory and brain function, it may be time for a memory screening.

The Center 4 Brain Health on the Menorah Park Campus is registered as a Community Awareness-Raising and Education Site (C.A.R.E.S.) with the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America. Screenings are available by appointment throughout the year. The free screenings take only about 15 minutes, and the public is invited to come and bring a friend or family member.

In addition to brain screenings, the center also offers classes designed to strengthen a participant’s memory and problem-solving skills, to teach meditation exercises and to help them master stress relief techniques — all designed to improve memory and cognition.

Do you need support? Care partners for individuals with memory and thinking concerns can attend the Center’s Care Partner Support Groups held from 6 p.m. – 7 p.m. on the second Tuesday of each month.

The Brain Health Information Resource Center provides education, support, and materials for various aspects of brain health including: nutrition, diet, cognitive and physical exercise, sleep, emotional wellness, and personal health concerns such as high blood pressure, stroke, and medications.
