DEMENTIA FRIENDLY DESIGNATION AWARDED TO OCALA/MARION COUNTY

Hospice of Marion County (HMC) and the Nancy Renyhart Center for Dementia Education, a program of HMC, announced that Dementia Friendly America has designated the Ocala/Marion County area as a Dementia Friendly community.

Dementia Friendly Ocala/Marion County is a collaborative effort led by the Nancy Renyhart Center for Dementia Education (NRCDE) and an action committee comprised of interdisciplinary community representatives from HCA Florida, Marion Senior Services, Renstar Medical Research, SouthState Bank, Pinnacle Retirement Advisors and a couple who are currently dealing with dementia, according to the news release.

“The NRCDE’s mission, aligned with Dementia Friendly Ocala/Marion County’s efforts, is to erase the stigma and misunderstanding about dementia through conversation and education,” said Lanie Shirey, executive director of the Nancy Renyhart Center for Dementia Education, in the release. “The goal is to become the community’s go-to resource for information, resources and support for care partners while forging partnerships that result in a community that is safe and inclusive for people living with dementia,” Shirey added.

“We take great pride in receiving this designation and are honored that the city of Ocala and Marion County recently issued proclamations about the impact this initiative will have in our community,” said Hospice of Marion County CEO Rick Bourne, in the release.
