Dementia-Friendly: A Moultrie County Designation
Being designated as a dementia-friendly county is more than just a title. It means our communities, businesses, organizations, and residents support an environment where individuals experiencing cognitive decline can live with dignity, connection, and purpose.
One of the simplest ways to help protect yourself and others from illness is also one of the easiest to overlook: washing your hands.
Regular handwashing with soap and water helps remove germs before they can spread to you, your family, and others. Make this simple healthy habit part of your day.
During an emergency or disaster, looking out for one another can make a real difference. Once you and your family are safe, check on neighbors who may need extra help, including older adults, people with disabilities, or those who live alone.
Emergency preparedness is stronger when neighbors take care of neighbors.
