ARE YOU A CAREGIVER FOR SOMEONE YOU LOVE?
Are you or someone you know caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's disease? You are not alone. More that 5 million people are living with Alzheimer's disease and over 15 million are caring for someone with Alzheimer's or another form of dementia. According to the Alzheimer's Association, 35% of people caring for someone with dementia report that their health has gotten worse due to care responsibilities compared to 19% who care for loved ones without dementia. If you are struggling with the daily challenges of caring for a loved one with dementia, you understand better than anyone how quickly your cup can become empty and how easy it is to ignore your own self care. Often times one person in the family becomes the primary caregiver while others carry on with life as usual, assisting occasionally when they can fit it into their lives. Or maybe you're dealing with family members who are in denial that their mom, dad or grandparent has a thinking problem and can no longer care for themselves. Whatever your situation, if someone in your circle of care is declining, you may benefit from services to provide you with skills for better family communication; self care strategies for better balance and health; improved communication with the loved one with dementia; ideas for activities and skills your loved one may be able to perform with your assistance. Call today with any questions you may have about how my services may be able to make your life a little easier.
