Memory and Aging Program

Program materials for Baycrest's Memory and Aging Program are now being offered to health professionals to help educate older adults in their communities about normal age related memory loss. The program has successfully operated for 10 years at Baycrest and had helped increase participants' knowledge of memory strategies, improve satisfaction of the participants' own memory ability and enhance participants' everyday memory function.

Program materials are free to qualified health care professionals and include a detailed leader's manual and a handbook for program participants. All information on this webpage is intended for health care professionals.

Content of the program includes modules addressing:

different types of memory
different factors that affect memory
how memory normally changes with age
