The Kendal Faith Group held its most successful meeting on Thursday, August 16 with an overflow crowd in the Private Dining Room.
Pamela A. Cardozo, RN, a Psychiatric Nurse addressed the group on “Loneliness: The Next Step”. The Faith Group had previously held sessions on “Loneliness” and on “Belonging”. Ms. Cardozo spoke on the various types of loneliness, how it begins, what the health risks are, and outlined a plan to combat it.
It was apparent from the turnout that loneliness is a widespread affliction. Ms. Cardozo’s identification of the elements leading to it and her mapping out of a plan to confront it was of great importance to many of the attendees.
Ms. Cardozo was brought to Kendal through the efforts of former Residents Association Chair Fran Kelly.
