Alzheimer’s and Brain Awareness Month
In case you didn’t know already, June is Alzheimer’s and Brain Awareness month! It’s a time to spread word about the serious impact of Alzheimer’s, promote brain health, and show support for families and individuals who suffer from this debilitating brain disease. Currently, Alzheimer’s is the sixth leading cause of death and there is no known cure. It is degenerative and fatal, killing more people annually than breast and prostate cancer combined.
Statistics show 1 out of 3 seniors will develop some form of dementia. It is important to recognize the sheer amount of people this disease affects on a regular basis. It is also important to recognize the caregivers and healthcare workers who assist those who are suffering. It isn’t easy for anyone, which is why their work is so vital.
Purple is the official color for this important cause. Fortunately, Uniform Advantage features the Have Hope scrub tops, a collection that makes showing your support effortless. Both exclusive and affordable, simply sporting these scrubs this month at your workplace can easily spread awareness, which can go a long way.
These awareness scrub tops are perfect for nurses and caregivers alike. Show your support today and together we can be one step closer to a cure.
The Alzheimer’s Association is making use of the hashtags #IGoPurpleFor and #ENDALZ for your relevant pictures on social media platforms. Go ahead and show your purple!
