Caregiver Support Group Meets at Elder Care
Caregiver Support Group Meets at Elder Care
Being a caregiver can be physically and emotionally draining. Elder Care offers a monthly support group for caregivers that provides practical information in a nurturing environment and offers participants a safe place to share their stories and vent their frustrations. The health and well-being of the caregiver is important too. They often become physically ill due to the stresses of caring. If the caregiver is stressed or unhealthy, it has a negative impact on the loved one for whom the care is being provided. Our next four-week Caregiver Support Group session begins on April 4 and meets the first Tuesday of each month at 10:00 am. For more information, please call Sheila at 918-336-8500.

Community Connect: Healthy Living for Your Brain & Body
Community Connect: Healthy Living for Your Brain & Body
At any age, there are lifestyle habits we can adopt to help maintain or even potentially improve our health. These habits may also help to keep our brains healthy as we age and possibly delay the onset of cognitive decline. Jacob Guinan, Community Outreach Coordinator for the Alzheimer’s Association, will present tips from the Alzheimer’s Association's latest research program. This seminar covers four significant lifestyle areas that impact habits associated with healthy aging. No cost to attend. Open to adults of any age. RSVP by 5/31 to Elder Care.
