On Friday, March 8th, Sid Jacobson JCC in East Hills hosted the annual “Lawrence Rosenbloom Care Day Symposium,” which is designed to teach professional or family caregivers strategies and to build resilience in the face of degenerative illnesses like Alzheimer’s or dementia.
The symposium is named for the father of SJJCC Board Member Penny Kaufman.
The SJJCC was honored to have Alaina Hoschke and Adria Thompson, who presented on various dementia care-related topics. Their informative and engaging presentations provided valuable insights and resources to all.
Attendee Dorothy Roper commended the event, “As in the past, my experience with the JCC was top-notch right from the start.
The speakers were spot on and provided information from two different perspectives on challenges that we, as caregivers, face each day. Both connected with their audience and offered ideas that were practical and easy to understand.”
