Alzheimer's disease and Dementia are life-changing for both those who are diagnosed and those close to them. Tending to someone with Alzheimer's or Dementia impacts all aspects of daily life for their caregivers. We understand the challenges facing caregivers as they meet their loved one's physical, mental, and emotional needs.

Let us help. Newton Health Care Center and Home Instead have partnered to provide a monthly support group for caregivers, family, and friends of persons with dementia. We know how important it is to meet other caregivers and develop a mutual support system. We offer a safe place to exchange practical information on coping, caregiving problems, and possible solutions.

Here are a few examples of the topics we cover:

Working through challenges and different ways of coping.

Learning about resources available in the Newton community.

Share feelings, needs, and concerns about daily challenges and long term plans.
