The Alzheimer's Project, Inc. is proud to announce our sponsor of
the month, Killearn United Methodist Church. From the beginning
of this calendar year, we knew we needed to expand services.
We have done this in many ways, including support groups in the
rural counties and a new day respite program that is held at
Killearn United Methodist Church. On the first and third Monday of
each month caregivers are able to get up to 6 hours of free time
for themselves. Caregivers are able to get to doctor's
appointments, go grocery shopping, go to the mall, catch up with
a friend, or catch up on some much needed sleep. While the
caregiver is away, the Alzheimer's patient remains with staff and
volunteers and is engaged in activities throughout the day. Arts
and crafts, music, games, and even food. The best part is that all
of this is free. The Alzheimer's Project, Inc., is thrilled to have
Killearn United Methodist Church as our community sponsor for
August 2010.
