SUPPORT GROUP UPDATE
   by Barbara Corkadel

Things are going well with the support group. We celebrated our one-year anniversary in March. Our membership continues to grow with people coming from surrounding communities.

Nancy Hawkins Program Director of NeuroAdvance, was our guest speaker at our April meeting.

She educated us on the brain and changes that may occur with an injury. There were plenty of questions for her to answer; I got great feedback from the group. The next day some of the clients at Mediplex of Lynn were hard at work using the information they learned from Nancy. We also have some exciting activities planned for the summer, which include bowling and a picnic.

The group now meets on the first Monday of the month, at 7:00 PM - 8:30 PM, at the Beverly Hospital in the Kauder Conference Room.

For more information call Barbara Corkadel at 978-739-4983.
