Memory Café
Staying socially and mentally active is good for the brain!
At St. John’s Community Care, we understand the challenges that come with caring for a loved one with memory loss, and we are committed to providing resources and support to help caregivers and their loved ones. Our Memory Café is a valuable resource for those who may feel isolated or overwhelmed by their caregiving journey.
Memory Cafes provide a safe and enjoyable place for caregivers and their loved ones with early memory loss. St. John’s Community Care caregiver specialists lead the group in reminiscing on a new topic each week to provide the cognitive stimulation those with memory loss need.
