Dementia Support Northwest Dementia Support Northwest (ASW) is an organization of volunteers, family and friends of those affected by Alzheimer's and other dementia-related diseases.

Here is a list of on-line services we offer through Zoom:

Round Table
A weekly program for people with early memory loss concerns. The program offers a safe and comfortable environment for participants to receive cognitive, physical an social interaction. Our weekly one hour long group consist of an exercise program to promote strength and a sense of well -being, and a social setting to build peer relationships, and a social setting to specific interests and supportive interaction. Strong bonds form among those who attend. Not only with the individual experiencing early memory loss benefit in many ways from this support group, but it is also great for the caregiver since the class provides a safe and educational environment for their loved ones to attend each week. Caregiver Support Group
This support group will provide you as the caregiver, the opportunity to talk to other individuals who are facing some of the same problems that you are. It is helpful to talk to sympathetic people about the frustrations you are experiencing. Alzheimer's disease and memory loss problems create many specific problems for families in their daily lives. Simply getting to know other people with similar concerns is a comfort to many. A support group is a safe place to bring up issues that might be hard to talk about at home. The caregiver can raise specific concerns where the objectivity of others can help the caregiver think through the situation. This support group will also be an excellent place to learn about memory loss, dementia and the Alzheimer Disease, legal issues, community resources available to you and your family and better help you plan for the future. The members of the group welcome all caregivers and willingly share their ideas and experiences. Find Me Safe Network (Project Lifesaver)
The main purpose of this program is to find the loved one and return them quickly. The results are a saving of a life, not to mention a reduction in the usage of time man power and money. More information can be obtained by calling our office @ 360-671-3316. Bill Elfo,

The person's bracelet is identified with an individual frequency number and is linked to their profile, which assists our search and rescue team towards the location of the client if they wander or get lost. Memory Awareness Screenings – Free. By Appointment. Early Memory Loss Educational Program – This 9-week class for both the caregiver and the care receiver provides information about the disease and teaches techniques to prepare for the future.
