Wanted:
· Individuals experiencing memory
difficulties
· Those diagnosed with mild memory loss
· Anyone interested in intervention for
memory loss
I would like to invite anyone with
questions about their memory to a new class that will start on Friday, October
14th at the Centralia Center in Wisconsin Rapids. The class will
begin at 12:30 p.m. and conclude at 3:30 p.m.
In the past we have been called “MEMORY
BOOSTERS” and the philosophy of this club is based on the belief that memory
loss does not mean giving up productive activities and community
involvement. We offer a supportive, fun,
and creative atmosphere where individuals can interact with others, enjoy
outings into the community and participate in stimulating activities that can
strengthen memory.
Our goals are to provide:
·
A
safe environment to SHARE EXPERIENCES
and ASK QUESTIONS
·
FRIENDSHIP and an opportunity to TALK TO OTHERS about their experiences
with memory loss
·
SUPPORT & INFORMATION
·
Stimulating
activities for the MIND and BODY
The club is designed to meet the
needs of both the individual with memory loss and the family. The club (name to
be decided) will meet every Friday. All
potential club members must participate in an interview before starting.
