About this event
Featuring Lindsey Vajpeyi, Director of Early-Stage Programs at Insight Memory Care Center in northern Virginia
Getting a diagnosis of dementia can be quite a shock – or, for some people, a sense of relief! And, if you’re a loved one of someone who has dementia, understanding how to plan ahead while also adjusting to the “new normal” is so important.
In this presentation you will:
· Understand the difference between normal aging and dementia
· Learn the most common types of dementia
· Discover practical next steps to take after a diagnosis
