Recent research has shifted the understanding of depression’s role in dementia from not only a symptom, but also a risk factor. In fact, having a history of depression, even decades earlier, is now strongly correlated with a two-fold increase in dementia risk.
Join Waveny’s Navigator Program for informative discussions with local clinicians who will explore the link between dementia and depression, address the challenges of delineating between them and review their clinical roles in treating both dementia and depression.
The first event will be held March 5th at the New Canaan YMCA.
