Newtown Police marking Alzheimer's Awareness Month

November is widely recognized as Alzheimer's awareness month.  Newtown Police are offering residents the opportunity to place a small sticker or note in a prominent place in their loved one's home in order to alert first responders that the person they are serving may be suffering from symptoms related to Alzheimer's or dementia.  A limited number of these stickers are available at the Police Department free of charge.  Newtown Police say caring for a family member who is suffering is a frustrating and emotional task, and no one should have to tackle it alone.  They suggest contacting the Department of the town's Director of Human Services for information about local resources for loved ones.
