Communities in Micronesia invited to free dementia awareness series
The University of Guam will host a dementia awareness conference series over the next four weeks about Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias, according to a news release.
“Dementia can be overwhelming not only for those who have it, but for their caregivers,” said Margaret Hattori-Uchima, dean of the University of Guam School of Health. “With this virtual conference series, our hope is to improve the quality of life of our loved ones with dementia.”
Hosted by the Guam/Micronesia Geriatrics Workforce Enhancement Program, the sessions are free and open to the public in Guam and Micronesia.
