Support Group Offered

Senior Commons at Powder Mill, 1775 Powder Mill Road, York, hosts a monthly dementia education and support group featuring informative topics that promote the well-being of older adults with Alzheimer's or other forms of dementia, as well as their family care partners. Meetings are held on the third Wednesday of each month at 3 p.m.

The next meeting, on Wednesday, Jan. 21, will explore "Understanding and Coping with Agitation or Aggression." People with Alzheimer's or dementia may experience emotional changes such as confusion, suspicion, depression or anxiety. These feelings may cause them to become easily upset with loved ones or when outside of their comfort zone. Attendees will learn how to manage these challenging behaviors from the Senior Commons team.

Participants are asked to register by Tuesday, Jan. 20, by calling 717-741-0961 or emailing dadams@powdermill.com.
