Prairie Meadows Alzheimer’s Care Center (prairiemeadowsseniorliving.com) is excited to host Walk to End Alzheimer’s at Stinson Park on October 14. The Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s is a fight for a different future – a fight in support of families facing the disease today, for more time, for treatments and for a stop to Alzheimer’s.

For more information about the walk or to register, visit act.alz.org/site/SPageServer/?pagename=walk_homepage. Prairie Meadows hopes to see you at their booth during the walk. So far, their team has raised over $5,500.

Prairie Meadows is a homelike memory-care facility with 66 beds in four types of apartment-style housing – private deluxe, private, semiprivate (just shared bathroom) and companion rooms – and a nurse at the community around the clock. They use a “Spark resident-led” program to help get to know residents by learning their life stories and finding out their preferences, likes, dislikes and cherished memories. Prairie Meadows then incorporates that information into their everyday care. For more information, visit prairiemeadowsseniorliving.com or call (402) 391-2790.
