Bulletin Board: Memory loss presentation

Concord Regional Visiting Nurse Association is offering a free presentation “Memory Loss & Aging – When Should I Be Concerned” on June 13 from noon to 1 p.m. as part of the Lunch and Learn Series at Presidential Oaks, 200 Pleasant St. 

All of us have probably experienced occasional episodes of forgetfulness; however there are differences between typical age-related forgetfulness and dementia-related illness. Find out if forgetfulness is a natural part of aging or something you can improve. Learn how to keep your brain and your memory in shape. For more information, call 224-4093 or 800-924-8620, ext. 5815.

The Concord Regional Visiting Nurse Association also offers monthly walk-in immunization clinics for children and adults who are uninsured, underserved, and who have no access to these needed services in order to lead a healthy lifestyle. June clinics are June 3 from 1 to 3 p.m. and June 18 from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church Outreach Center, 21 Centre St. A fee of $10 is requested per person. Children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Please bring an immunization record with you. For more information, call Concord Regional VNA at 224-4093 or 800-924-8620, ext. 5815.

The Concord Regional Visiting Nurse Association is also holding a free monthly walk-in blood pressure clinic June 7 from 9:30 to 11 a.m. at Concord Parks and Recreation (formerly Dame School), 14 Canterbury Rd.
