Why Purple Out Day??
Purple is near and dear to our heart here at Quest Therapy Consultants as our company color and it’s become part of our brand recognition! Prior to opening Quest, Dr. Jeanne Williams spent 4 years working in an assisted living facility that cared for people with Alzheimer’s disease. It’s a really horrible disease that takes everything from the person who has it, but it also robs the family members of their loved ones. Many of our Quest friends are currently fighting this battle with loved ones and many have fought it in the past, dealing with the devastating effects of Alzheimer’s disease. So when we saw that Alzheimer’s Tennessee was having Purple Out Day, we knew it was a great cause that we could easily get behind 110%! We want to Make Alzheimer’s a Memory!
Quest Therapy Consultants supports healthy, active lifestyles with regular exercise, healthy diet, sleep, stress management, and support networks for mental health. If you add in mental stimulation, you have the 6 Pillars of Alzheimer’s Prevention. According to the Alzheimer’s Research & Prevention Foundation, regular physical exercise can reduce your risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease by up to 50 percent!! Exercise and healthy lifestyle choices can prevent, treat, or cure up to 40 chronic diseases and illnesses. We want to support our community to get involved in healthy choices that improve our physical and mental health and decrease the burden of disease on our family, friends, society, and healthcare system! Alzheimer’s Tennessee is a great organization that provides resources to help people in East Tennessee learn how to deal with Alzheimer’s disease. You can learn more about them here: Alzheimer’s Tennessee – Who We Are
So to do our part to help fight this terrible disease and give back to our community we are supporting Alzheimer’s Tennessee, which provides family support, offers community and professional education, advocates for the needs and rights of those with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias, as well as research for its prevention, cure, and treatment. We are going to Purple Out this Friday, September 14th!
