HUNTINGTON -- Cabell Huntington Hospital and the SeniorWise program will host a mental fitness presentation from 9 to 10:30 a.m. Thursday, June 25, in the Harless Auditorium, located just off the Marshall University Medical Center atrium on the hospital campus.

The free event will provide information for seniors who want to sharpen their minds. Skills such as memory, attention, perception and reasoning will be among the topics covered as Bruce Mondschain, president of Catalyst Benefits, discusses cognitive vitality.

An RSVP is requested and can be made by e-mailing Alisha.adkins@chhi.org or by calling 304-526-2695 no later than Monday, June 22.

SeniorWise representatives also will be available to discuss membership opportunities with people over 50 years of age. Cabell Huntington Hospital and Chase sponsor SeniorWise, a free senior membership program for people throughout the Tri-State.

The program was developed to meet the needs of older adults who want to maintain their quality of life as they age. SeniorWise offers a number of benefits for members, including health screenings, financial seminars, educational programs, day trips, monthly newsletters and discounts on both hospital services and Chase Bank services.
