When family members, friends or neighbors enter a condition of dementia, how do we grapple with the confusion or discomfort we might feel when we want to care for and socialize with them, but don’t always understand their needs? If you work with the public and individuals display signs of dementia, you may wonder how best to serve them.

This Monday, March 16, at 6 p.m. in the Ham Room of the Conway Public Library, Susan Ruka, R.N., Ph.D. will present “Finding Joy in a Life with Dementia.”
