It is a big decision to move someone living with dementia from their home to a care residence. When caregiving becomes too difficult and it is no longer safe to care for someone at home, this may be the best option. Your role may no longer be that of a 24/7 caregiver, but you still will need to be involved as an advocate for your person to make sure their needs are met.
Amy House will discuss how to work effectively for positive outcomes with memory care staff. She will discuss:
What is the level of communication, care, and engagement you should expect from an ALDC licensed Memory Care?
Tips on how to work together with the facility to give your loved one the best care.
How to handle minor and major concerns with the Memory Care facility.
