Fundacion Alzheimer’s Aruba is organising an event where they will be talking about Alzheimer’s given by the Drs. Melva Croes Yanez with workshops on wandering : Causes, risk factors and tips for families who are going through one way or another in an Alzheimer’s case here in Aruba.
Tonight from 7:00 pm to 9.30 pm at the Centro di Bario Lago Heights there will be a theme “wandering”, in connection with the Alzheimer’s month and in relation with the 20 years of existence of the Alzheimer’s Foundation Aruba. Tonight will be explained the causes and risks of this, and tips will be given regarding wandering.
Alzheimer’s Aruba Foundation and drs. Melva Croes-Yanez invites all the people of Aruba to come and educate themselves and find out more about this issue, and see the need for awareness on this issue and the importance of organising them in this area in Aruba, having like 5 cases of people being lost and never found again because of this in Aruba.
This is something to regret and that is why we are trying to raise awareness among the people in this area and also how alarmingly the numbers of people with such a problem in Aruba are rising. This information is given in order to lead to another year in a congress that goes about the legal aspect and the part of how to act when a person gets lost.
Drs. Melva Croes-Yanez explained more about the awareness of the community and she remarked that although the Alzheimer’s Aruba Foundation is celebrating 20 years of raising awareness of the people at different levels and at different places, there are still people who do not fully know what Alzheimers is and remark how people who are going through something like this more closely only attracts a lot of attention and take this invitation of awareness seriously.
Finally Drs. Melva Croes-Yanez and the Alzheimer’s Aruba Foundation invite the entire community of Aruba for this presentation. It doesn’t matter if you are living this closely or not, it is better to educate, prevent, and help before repenting. They put emphasis on taking this topic seriously so that you can also know what to do in the basic area and be better equipped for anything.
