Our next meeting and caregivers support group will be on Thurs., Oct. 19 at 10 am in the Multipurpose Room. These meetings are not only educational for you the caregiver, but are also a support group for you. all caregivers are welcome at these meetings. If you are no longer a caregiver because your loved one is living in a memory care facility, you need this support group. This is another major change in your life and we are here for you. Those of you who are caregivers do not have to be caring for a person with memory loss to attend. We are here to support and educate you, plus entertain your loved one while you are attending the meeting. Our guest speaker this month is Kathleen B. Albrektson. She is the senior partner of Albrektson & Shumate. Her firm recently received the Sun-Redlands Daily Facts 2017 Readers' Choice Award as San Bernardino County's Best Attorney.
