Bergedorfer Aktionstag Demenz

Program

Once again this year, the Bergedorf Dementia Awareness Day offers family members and caregivers, people living with dementia, professional groups, and interested citizens the opportunity to gather information and exchange ideas.

In addition to receiving advice at information booths hosted by professional groups, visitors can attend expert presentations on age-related memory disorders and gain practical tips on communicating with people living with dementia.

In a concluding discussion session, people living with dementia share their experiences of coping with the condition and are available to answer questions.
