Giving Thanks and Upcoming Events!

I want to say thank you to all who attended the Challenging Dementia Program yesterday at the Herndon Senior Center. I was pleased that the event was well received by so many healthcare professionals and local community members! I look forward to continuing to provide enriching programs such as this as education and outreach is key!
I am grateful for the support of my event community partners the Herndon Senior Center, Care with Love, and Great Falls Assisted Living as they too understand how critical community education programs such as this are in making a positive impact on care outcomes!
