Senator Phillips & Alzheimer’s Foundation of America Bringing Free Memory Screening Program to Manhasset

     Senator Elaine Phillips (R-Manhasset) and the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America (AFA) will be sponsoring a free memory screening program on Thursday, March 30th from 1 pm to 4 pm at the Manhasset Library (30 Onderdonk Avenue, Manhasset).

     Screenings consist of a series of questions to gauge memory, language and thinking skills.  The memory screening takes approximately 10 minutes and is confidential.  Participants will be provided with the results on-site.  Results are not a diagnosis, but a memory screening can suggest if someone should see a physician for a full evaluation.

     The program is free of charge and open to all residents of Senator Phillips’ Senate district, however appointments are required and will be scheduled on a first come, first served basis.

     Residents wishing to get a free memory screening on March 30th can schedule an appointment by calling Senator Phillips’ office at 516-746-5924.
