Alzheimer's Disease is an ever-growing problem for older adults in Pennsylvania and across the country. It is a disease that slowly and irreversibly destroys the memory and thinking skills of affected individuals. On this month's episode of Focus on Aging Adults, our guests talk about the disease, what the signs and risk factors of the disease are, the caregivers who take care of the individuals with the disease, and what AARP and the state are doing to tackle this disease.
Our guests include:
Ray Landis, Advocacy Manager of AARP Pennsylvania
Clay Jacobs, Executive Director at Greater PA Chapter of the Alzheimer's Association
Joel Kroft, Executive Director of Memory Support Services at Country Meadows Retirement Communities
