To help those who care for someone with Alzheimer’s, McKenna Crossing is hosting a Alzheimer’s Association of Minnesota-North Dakota informational and support group.  The caregiver group will be meeting once a month.  The first meeting will be held 7 pm., Tuesday, Feb. 5 in the community room at McKenna Crossing. 

Caregivers attending a meeting find a relaxed, confidential atmosphere.  They are among other caregivers who are glad to share their experiences and offer suggestions for handling caregiver concerns.  Each meeting will begin with an informational session and end with the option to stay for support group time. 

Caregiver groups are open to the public and free of charge.  Information about Alzheimer’s disease and support groups can be obtained by calling the Minnesota-North Dakota chapter at 1-800-232-0851 or visiting them on-line at www.alzmndak.org.  For questions about the meeting at McKenna Crossing, please contact Lola Amendt at 952-230-3303.
