Whether you provide daily caregiving, participate in decision-making, or simply care about a person with the disease, we have resources to help.
Find Resources
Educate yourself about Alzheimer’s disease. The more you know, the easier it will be to find ways to help.
Organize family and friends who want to help with caregiving. Coordinate helpers and share tasks with a care team calendar.
Make a standing appointment to spend time with the person living with dementia and to give the caregiver an opportunity to recharge.
Many Alzheimer’s and dementia caregivers report feeling isolated or alone. Be sure to check in to help them feel supported.
Ask for a list of errands or chores that need to be done. It can be hard for a caregiver to find time to check these tasks off their list.
Specific offers of support (“I’m going to the store; what do you need?”) can be more helpful than open-ended offers (“Call me if you need anything”).
Help caregivers at the holidays by offering to help with cooking, cleaning or gift shopping, or by offering to host family celebrations.
Honor a person living with the disease and their caregiver by getting involved with the Alzheimer’s Association: Volunteer, fundraise, advocate and more.
