Dementia Care Near You
Are you the adult child of a parent suffering from dementia? If so, you may have found yourself in a difficult situation: caring for a loved one. Taking care of a loved one with dementia can be difficult, especially if you've never had to provide care for an elderly family member before. Your loved one is, at their core, still the same person, but as their condition progresses, they will start to show signs of cognitive issues and behavioral changes. When a loved one suffers from dementia, it may be difficult for family caregivers to cope with how the diagnosis has impacted their everyday life. It's important that you're kind with yourself right now.
