National Memory Care Symposium – Reshaping the Picture
When: July 8-9, 2024

Where: Ingleside King Farm, Rockville, Maryland | 701 King Farm Boulevard Rockville, MD 20850

This extraordinary Life Plan Community is ideally situated in the heart of King Farm, a walkable, intergenerational neighborhood with urban attributes and a small-town feel in Montgomery County, Maryland.

The National Memory Care Symposium's purpose is to create a national conversation about the next generation of developmental and compassionate care for individuals and families impacted by Alzheimer's Disease and other forms of dementia. We will continue the conversation together into the future and "reshape the picture" of memory care as new and innovative care models emerge. It is anticipated that more than 100 leaders and program staff from life plan/continuing care retirement communities, assisted living communities, skilled nursing facilities, home care organizations, adult day care organizations, and other services along the continuum will participate in this event in the shadow of the nation's capital's vibrant summer attractions. Join us as we come together to learn, collaborate, and empower each other in providing compassionate care for those navigating the challenges of cognitive decline.
