Concerned about a Loved One? Memory Consultations Can Help with Answers, Resources



Shakopee Library - 235 Lewis St S, Shakopee, MN 55379

Do you have a loved one who is struggling with confusion and forgetfulness daily? Who can you turn to for answers or help? Few resources in Scott County address the issues surrounding dementia. It’s no wonder family members feel frightened and alone in handling the problem.

If you have concerns about a family member or are concerned about your own health, a memory consultation program hosted by Emerald Crest is available free of charge. A registered nurse or occupational therapist from Emerald Crest by Augustana Care will be available at the Shakopee Library by appointment Thursday, July 21st and Thursday, August 4th from 10 a.m. to noon. Experts can provide guidance and information on local services and resources. To schedule an appointment, contact Linh Tran at (952) 856-7529 or lmtran@augustanacare.org

Quotes

For over two and a half years my husband was a resident. A former nurse, a good friend of mine, went with me to look over memory care facilities and, after a few moments at Emerald Crest we both agreed this was the place for Chuck. I was happy to visit there and observe their daily activities and how they engaged the residents and how caring all the staff was. I have even visited after my husband's death, because I wanted to see staff people again. We couldn't have made a better choice.

— Alice, wife of resident
