CARE PARTNER COMMENTS*

“I believe that the Brain Wellness group has helped in keeping my husband active physically and mentally. Since enrollment in the group, his Alzheimer’s has not progressed as I expected. I really do attribute this to the stimulation, support and social aspects of the program. I will definitely keep him in the program as long as he is benefiting from it.”

“Coming to the Brain Wellness group is the highlight of the week for my mom.”
