Episcopal Retirement Services (ERS) was proud to take part in Cincinnati’s 4th Annual Health & Retirement Expo on June 13. With the theme “Aging Well Together—Living Stronger, Smarter, and More Connected,” the event drew hundreds of older adults and their families for a day focused on connection, education, and support.
The event offered a powerful platform for Center for Memory Support and Inclusion (CMSI), which leads ERS’ efforts to foster dementia-friendly communities. CSMI Director Shannon Braun shared her expertise on the main stage panel, When Stroke and Memory Collide: Understanding the link Between Stroke and Dementia, moderated by Local 12’s Liz Bonis. Shannon’s insights emphasized the critical link between early memory care and cognitive health.
