Dementia Support Group

If you or a loved one have been diagnosed with dementia or are facing an impending diagnosis of memory loss, you will have a lot of questions about your next steps and major life decisions. NMC Health is here to help.

Our Dementia Support Groups in Newton, Kansas share educational information about dementia and information about where to find community resources. These support groups primarily focus on encouraging shared experiences, emotional support, and provide tips on how to handle day-to-day situations.

NMC Health’s Dementia Support Groups focus on each member’s individual needs in unique way where everyone in the group can benefit. Members can:

  • Share their experiences
  • Provide emotional support for other members
  • Give tips on how to handle day-to-day situations

We offer several types of group meeting. Each group meeting is different but the focus is always on living with a diagnosis (or an impending diagnosis) of dementia.
