Warner Attends Conference On Aging
Linda Warner, Director of Case Management and Geriatric Services at Heartland Human Services, recently attended the 31st Annual Governor’s Conference on Aging. The conference was held December 12-14 in Chicago. This year dementia was a focal topic of the conference. Southern Illinois University School of Medicine/Center for Alzheimer’s Disease and Related Disorders organized sessions of particular interest to rural residents and professionals. Warner, who coordinates the memory and aging clinic at Heartland, presented with Greg Kyrouac of SIU and Heather Mulder of the Alzheimer’s Association on “Providing Dementia Services in Rural Communities.” The presentation focused on the barriers to services that rural Illinois residents face and ways to address them. Heartland has several programs that help those with dementia and their caregivers.
