Cedar Sinai Park and the residents of Rose Schnitzer Manor invite you and your elderly loved ones to a vitally important and educational program on the nature of memory. Medical expert Dr. Scott Losk of the Memory Health Center will help us understand what’s normal when it comes to memory loss and what’s not. Along the way he may allay your fears. Dr. Losk is a clinical psychologist and neuropsychologist who has maintained a clinical and research practice with Summit Research Network in Portland, OR since 1990. He has conducted over 50 clinical trials in Alzheimer’s disease since 1990 and has done research on all of the current FDA-approved drugs for Alzheimer’s disease. He was involved in the very earliest research that led to the first-ever treatment for Alzheimer’s disease. For more information on memory-related concerns we encourage you to visit online at https://www.memoryhealthcenter.com/our-memory-health-specialists/ or, better yet, join us in Rose Schnitzer Manor’s Zidell Hall April 9t
Dr. Losk’s talk is is just one of over 75 activities, programs and events happening daily at Rose Schnitzer Manor. Our daily offerings and services run the gamut from a resident-led series on genetics to Tai Chi and yoga to religious observances. We offer food for the body and food for the soul.

Sex, Beauty, War and Despair: Adult Themes in the Five Megillot with Rabbi Kosak
Sunday, February 2 – June 21, 9:45-11:15am, (12 weeks total; full schedule available with registration)
The five megillot are some of the enduring classics of world literature. Jews read these scrolls publicly on holidays throughout the year, but without the regularity with which we read the Torah. As a consequence, these important sections of the Bible are less familiar to the average synagogue goer. In this course, we will have an opportunity to examine the megillot, their deeply human themes, and the light they can shed on our own lives.
Cost: $36 ($72 for non-members).
