Finding the Help You Need
Caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s or dementia can be emotionally and physically exhausting. It’s quite common for caregivers to feel overwhelmed. Many families reach a breaking point, realizing they need help but don’t know where to turn. Here are some things to consider when looking for help:
- What part of the day is the most challenging?
- What kind of support would truly make a difference for both of us?
