Alzheimer’s & Dementia awareness and prevention
Catching dementia and Alzheimer’s early allows seniors and those directly affected to play a key role in health decisions, making plans, and accessing tailored treatment and support services. And prevention is even better. Here are flyers from the Asian American Center of Frederick to promote prevention and early detection of these health conditions. Flyers to post in your house of worship or organization and/or share with friends and family:

Early Detection postcards (English & Spanish)
Healthy Brain (English)
10 Warning Signs (English & Spanish)
