Know the 10 Signs: Early Detection Matters


The Alzheimer’s Association, Greater New Jersey Chapter will present a community education program, “Know the 10 Signs: Early Detection Matters” at the Kearny Public Library on Tuesday, February 18 from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m.  There is no fee for attending this program, but registration is required to reserve seating and materials.  Please call 973.586.4300 to pre-register and for further information or driving directions. 

Program Description

The warning signs of Alzheimer's disease are often dismissed as side effects of normal aging.  If you or someone you know is experiencing memory loss or changes in behavior or thinking skills, it's time to learn the facts.  Early detection, diagnosis and intervention are vital because they provide the best opportunities for treatment, support and planning for the future.

Attend this interactive workshop to learn the 10 warning signs of Alzheimer’s disease. We’ll separate myth from reality and address commonly held fears about Alzheimer’s disease.
