Join us for a three-part, in-person educational series on a variety of topics relating to Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, and healthy living for your brain and body.

As part of its ongoing commitment to providing valuable educational opportunities for older adults, caregivers, and families throughout Central Ohio, Friendship Village of Dublin is once again partnering with the Alzheimer’s Association Central Ohio Chapter to present its annual three-part Alzheimer’s and dementia education series this fall.

 

What is the Alzheimer’s / Dementia Education Series?

Hosted on Friendship Village’s campus, the free seminar series is designed to help community members better understand Alzheimer’s disease and dementia, navigate caregiving challenges, and prepare for future care needs. Through this strong partnership, both organizations aim to empower individuals with trusted information, practical guidance, and local resources that can help them make informed decisions at every stage of the dementia journey.

The educational series will feature an educational seminar per month from September to November, each focusing on a different aspect of Alzheimer’s disease, dementia care, and family support.

Where is the Alzheimer’s / Dementia Education Series?

All sessions will be held in the Muirfield Room at Friendship Village of Dublin, located at 6000 Riverside Drive. These events are open to the public at no cost.
