Annapolis, MD ( May 5, 2022) - The Department of Aging and Disabilities is pleased to announce two Caregiver Educational Workshops for June 2022.
On June 16th at 6:30 pm, Chesapeake Life Center staff will present “Maintaining a Positive, Healthy, and Hope Filled Outlook.” Maintaining a positive attitude is critical when you want to achieve anything or simply improve the quality of your life. As a caregiver, you have to be realistic about what can and can’t be controlled. You can’t control that your loved one has a chronic or progressive disease — nor can you control the impact of that disease. This acknowledgment will allow you to plan and seek help so that you can maintain a positive, healthy, and hope-filled outlook. This workshop will be held at the Annapolis Senior Activity Center (119 S. Villa Avenue, Annapolis). You can register for this workshop online at http://www.aacounty.org/aging or call 410-222-4375/4339.
On June 15th at 6:30 pm, an in-person Dementia Live® workshop will be held at the North County/Hein Office (7320 Ritchie Highway, Glen Burnie). The Dementia Live workshop is a high impact, dementia simulation experience that immerses participants into life with dementia, resulting in a deeper understanding of what it is like to live with cognitive impairment and sensory changes. Space is limited and registration is required. You can register for this workshop by calling 410-222-4375/4339.
The workshops are presented at no cost to the public by the National Family Caregiver Support Program of the Anne Arundel County Department of Aging and Disabilities.
Anyone needing accommodations must contact Mary Chaput at 410-222-4339, or by e-mail at agchap01@aacounty.org at least seven days in advance of the event. TTY users, please call via Maryland Relay 7-1-1. All materials are available in an alternative format upon request.
