Thelma's Place serves Families and Our Community:

We provide caregivers a few hours of respite each week from their responsibilities so they can rest and recharge their own batteries.This service is available on a sliding scale.

Minders Keepers offers a positive setting where you can socialize, learn memory enhancing exercises, enjoy a variety of music, learn whole body fitness, participate in games, creative arts and have a great lunch. This is a supportive environment designed to assist you to meet and conquer the challenges you may face.

We educate family caregivers about Alzheimer's and other dementias so they have the tools they need to stay healthy themselves. This helps them provide their loved ones better care for a longer period of time.

We provide support, encouragement and hope for caregivers.

We educate, support, and encourage families and individuals who have just been diagnosed with Alzheimer's or other age-related dementias.

We help those concerned about memory loss or those who have just been diagnosed with Alzheimer's by using the "Use it or Lose it" Memory Enhancement program developed by Dr. Rob Winningham. He spent 16 years researching how to maintain and even improve memory ability. Although it's not a cure for dementia, research has shown exercising your brain and practicing healthy habits can build stronger connections within your brain.

We teach the community the value of staying well, both in mind and body, so mental capacities remain as sharp as possible for as long as possible. Memory Enhancement classes, a variety of exercise programs, nutritional cooking classes, pain management, and stress reduction classes will be offered.
