The Northern Wake Senior Center and the Wake Forest Senior Information Networking Group (SING) are partnering to host a series of free classes, workshops, and other events over the next several months to raise awareness about aging, Alzheimer’s, and related dementias.

Each event in the 2024 Age & Dementia Education Series will offer attendees the opportunity to learn about dozens of aging and dementia-related programs, services, products, and resources – all at the Northern Wake Senior Center, 235 E. Holding Ave.

These free events are scheduled from 9-11:30 a.m., and no registration is required.

"De-Prescribe & Thrive: Empowering Caregivers" will be offered on Saturday, Aug. 10. Led by Dr. Leon Canterbury, this session will provide caregivers with the knowledge and tools necessary to optimize medication regimens for their loved ones. Through education and support, caregivers learn how to safely reduce or discontinue unnecessary medications, promoting better health outcomes and improving overall well-being.

The Series continues on:
