Walk to End Alzheimer’s®

The world may look a little different right now, but one thing hasn’t changed: our commitment to ending Alzheimer’s. This year, Walk to End Alzheimer’s® is everywhere — on every sidewalk, track and trail.

This year’s event won’t be a large in-person gathering — instead, we are invited to walk in small teams of friends and family while others in our community do the same. Because we are all still walking and fundraising for the same thing: a world without Alzheimer’s and all other dementia.

Date: Saturday, October 17th

Link to Register for our Team: http://act.alz.org/goto/ufhealth

You can even download the Walk to End Alzheimer’s mobile app to send fundraising messages and track your progress as you go.

A new study published last month (June, 2019) in the journal PlosOne , shows that all this can be improved when these complex patients have access to a patient portal . “A patient portal is a secure online website that gives patients convenient, 24-hour access to personal health information from anywhere with an Inte...
