There is a upcoming influx of aging Minnesotans at risk for the development of dementia. There has been demonstrated benefit to early diagnosis and appropriate management for the individual with the disease, their family, and society as a whole. This webinar will review those benefits and discuss the infrastructure that needs to be developed in society and the health care system to be able to carry out that task. The potential structures and benefits of a Dementia Resource Center in central Minnesota will be discussed.
