Professor Maria Brown Leads Aging Studies Intitute's Community Collaboration to Benefit Older Adults Living at Home with Cognitive Decline

Description

A recently launched pilot project to screen for cognitive decline as part of routine community health services currently offered to older adults is expected to demonstrate the benefits of early detection of Alzheimer’s Disease and other dementias (AD/D). One major benefit is the potential of keeping Syracuse-area adults aged 65 and older healthy and safe in their homes for as long as possible.
