Caring for someone who has Alzheimer's disease or a related dementia can be a difficult physical, emotional and mental challenge. Caregiving can go on for years and requires special understanding, patience and skills. It's a tough road to travel alone, but fortunately, there are a number of services available to help. These programs and services provide information, education, support, and guidance for every stage of the Alzheimer's journey.
