Event Description:
The Alzheimer's Foundation of America (AFA) is sponsoring the National Memory Screening Week (NMSW) which will be held from November 1st - November 7th this year. Last year when it was merely one day long, the AFA screened over 250,000 people. A recent study shows that screenings may detect cognitive impairment up to 18 years prior to clinical diagnosis of Alzheimer's or dementia. This increased awareness brings a demand for memory screenings now more than ever. If you would like to participate in the AFA National Memory Screening Program please visit the link below.
