It is estimated that 5.3 million Americans are afflicted with Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia.
That translates into 14% of American’s over the age of 71, and over 50% of American’s over the age of 85.
Alzheimer’s Disease is characterized by symptoms of memory loss, changes in language and personality, making this one of
the most debilitating and progressive diseases with a profound effect on the caregiver. However with the
right tools, education and support, the family caregiver can provide a meaningful quality of life for the dementia client.
Client-Centered Care is our mission
In order to provide the highest level of care for loved ones with dementia, it is imperative that families and caregivers receive the leading edge practices in training and support. Caring Resources follows a holistic care model
