Part 1: Planning for Aging

In this presentation, learn more about what an individual should consider as they are aging, the options for aging, and tools to plan for the future effectively. We will define long-term care (LTC) and understand the different options, identify and use different tools to plan for LTC, and explore local and national resources to use in planning for aging.

Part 2: Understanding Alzheimer's and Dementia

Alzheimer's disease is not a normal part of aging. In this presentation, learn more about the impact of Alzheimer's, the difference between Alzheimer's and dementia, stages and risk factors, current research and treatments available for some symptoms, and Alzheimer's Association resources.
