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. Visit us and learn more.
