Westchester Elder Law Attorney Anthony J. Enea Explores Next Steps After an Alzheimer's Diagnosis

Westchester County elder law attorney Anthony J. Enea, Esq., member of Enea, Scanlan & Sirignano, LLP in White Plains and Somers, N.Y., recently welcomed Joan Nimmo, LCSW, care consultant and director of professional education for the Alzheimer’s Association Hudson Valley Chapter, for a special episode of the Talking Seniors podcast on what to do after receiving an Alzheimer’s diagnosis. The episode explores important conversations and offers helpful coping strategies for families to move forward together.

“Whether the diagnosis is Alzheimer's or another form of dementia, families turn to Joan and the Alzheimer's Association for advice and counsel,” said Anthony Enea, who has spent 35 years protecting the rights of seniors, the disabled and their families. “Joan has been working with people with dementia and their caregivers for more than 20 years, having begun this journey with her mother’s Alzheimer’s diagnosis. During what is undeniably a challenging time, she has the knowledge and expertise to focus on ensuring the care team is best equipped to support your loved one."
