A memory café is an informal social gathering for older adults living with memory loss and their care partners. Memory cafés are designed to be a casual, stress-free gathering to allow care partners the opportunity to relax and socialize with others in their same situation. Memory cafés provide a safe, supportive space where activities are not dependent on flawless memories. Coffee and snacks will be provided, and there is no cost to attend. However, this is not a care facility, and care partners are required to accompany their partners.
Memory Café Coos is held at the North Bend Public Library on the first Wednesday of every month from 10:30 AM to noon. It is designed both for people experiencing memory issues as well as their care partners. Care partners may include but are not limited to spouses, siblings, children, or friends. Memory Café Coos is staffed by qualified healthcare providers (LCSW), library staff, and volunteers.
This pilot project is funded by an Elder Service Innovation Grant from OHSU’s Office of Oregon Rural Health grant.
