Meet by Zoom Every Wednesday for 12 Weeks
Limited Number of Spaces for FHNN Members and Volunteers
Do you or someone you know repeat things or struggle with the ability to focus? Do you want to prevent memory lapses?
Join us for Goodwin Living’s StrongerMemory, a program to help improve your ability to retrieve memories. Past participants have noticed improvement in their ability to focus, find misplaced items and remember conversations. A limited number of spaces in this program are being offered by us by another Village, At Home in Alexandria. The first session is Wednesday, January 29, 3:00-4:00 pm
You will need a workbook to guide you. There is no cost other than if the registrant purchases a printed copy of the workbook. The download from the website is free. Please note there are many pages in this workbook. Click https://goodwinliving.org/stronger-memory/packets/. Alternatively, buy the workbook online from Goodwin Living for $17.50 and it will be shipped to you: Order Stronger Memory Workbook
For 12 weeks, you will be encouraged to spend just 20 to 30 minutes a day reading aloud, writing, and quickly completing simple math problems in the workbook. You are also invited to join weekly support calls. In these Zoom calls, you can share your experience with others, give and get encouragement, and gather practical advice from one another.
The facilitator for the program is Roberta McGregor, EdD, MSN, RN, a Registered Nurse with over 30 years’ experience in acute care education and academia.
The kickoff session on January 29, 2025, at 3:00 pm. The group will meet by Zoom every Wednesday for 12 weeks, ending on April 16.
