Support Groups Can Help!
It can be very therapeutic to discuss life’s challenges and changes with others on a similar journey. Support Groups at Senior Services give you the opportunity to share personal experiences and feelings, coping strategies and firsthand information. Senior Services currently offers Caregiver Support Group, Parkinson’s Disease Support Group and TOPS, a weight loss support group at Trailside Center.
Caregiver Support Group
Caring for your spouse or loved one can be both rewarding and challenging. This confidential support group is for men or women taking care of another person, be it their spouse, friend or family member. The group discusses current stressful situations that involve caregiving, and participants problem solve to find solutions and appropriate ways of coping. Educational material, tips and techniques are always included to help you as a caregiver.
Parkinson’s Disease Support Group
2nd Monday of each month from 3-4:30 pm
In collaboration with MyMichigan Health, the Parkinson’s Disease Support Group meets at the Senior Services Main Building. We are thrilled to host this group at our site and welcome people experiencing Parkinson’s disease and their care partners to join us for monthly learning and conversation.
This support group is designed for people with Parkinson’s, their spouses and other support individuals. It is intended to provide education, advice and awareness of community services available in dealing with this chronic disease.
Guest speakers will provide monthly educational presentations at the beginning of the meeting. Separate patient and caregiver breakout group discussions will follow.
