MGHS
offering free memory screenings
Marquette
General Health System will offer a series of free memory screenings
designed to raise awareness among older adults and their caregivers
about memory loss and normal aging, and the signs, symptoms and
need for early diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease.
The screenings
will be held Tuesday, April 25, at Woodland Assisted Living In
Negaunee; and Wednesday, May 10, at Marquette General. If screening
results indicate a need for further testing, patients will be
advised to see their doctor.
Memory screenings
are supported by funds from an Office of Rural Health Policy grant
and a partnership among MGHS, Portage Health System in Hancock,
Keweenaw Memorial Medical Center in Laurium, and Grand View Health
System in Ironwood.
