Support groups can provide a lifeline for caregivers, especially those caring for a loved one diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. The Alzheimer’s Support Group meets monthly at New Community Extended Care, 266 South Orange Avenue in Newark. The meetings are free and are held every three months.
According to the Alzheimer’s Association, Alzheimer’s is a progressive and fatal brain disease causing memory loss and problems with thinking and behavior severe enough to affect work, lifelong hobbies and social life.
