Join Jeanne Kessler, CNA Educator & Simulation RN of Hartford Healthcare Senior Services to participate in age-appropriate education for children to learn about Alzheimer?s disease. Today in the U.S., there are nearly 7 million Americans living with Alzheimer?s disease. In addition, over 11 million Americans are providing care for people living with this disease.
