Support Groups

Free and Open To The Public


Support groups sites are currently being added to this listing, so if a time or location is not convenient for you, please call the office at (330)788-9755.  If there are questions on finding any of the sites listed, please call for directions.

 

Although we expect a caregiver to come with an experience or problem that has been dificult, our participants and facilitators have experience and suggestions to help.  Understanding causes of both persistent and new behaviors can help caregivers and family members alike better cope with those challenges.

 

Alzheimer Network support groups are a very good place to learn from the experiences of others.  There is no need to search for answers that someone else is willing to share.  Besides care hints, each group has information available about convenient day programs, choosing an assisted living or nursing home, understanding Medicare/Medicaid and much, much more.  Come and see!
