Dementia Support Group

Jubilee Community Care continues its free monthly support groups for carers and people dealing with dementia, with a group starting at Centenary Community Hub on March 6.

Dementia is a chronic or persistent disorder with a range of symptoms associated with a decline in memory or other thinking skills severe enough to reduce a person’s ability to perform everyday activities. It is a tough topic of conversation and can be isolating for carers.

The dementia support sessions will cover educational topics such as communicating with dementia, understanding dementia in its many forms, supporting your loved one in daily activities, how to be supportive and where to find support, questions and answer sessions as well as networking with people in the same situation and experts in the field of dementia.

The first support session will be held at Centenary Community Hub’s Endeavour Room, 171 Dandenong Rd, Mount Ommaney on Tuesday, March 6, from 9.15am-11am.
The group will continue on Tuesdays at the same time on April 10, May 8, June 5 and July 3.

If you or someone you know may find these sessions helpful, please RSVP to reserve your spot by emailing Jubilee Community Care at admin@jccagedcare.org.au or calling 07 3871 3220.
