“Caregivers should take advantage of all the help and assistance they can find.” –
5.8 million Americans live with Alzheimer’s disease, which can be a difficult diagnosis for a senior and their family to accept and manage. Because of this, it’s important to arm yourself with the right tools so that you know where you can turn when you need help and support.

The tools highlighted here are all free and are designed to support you as you support your loved ones. We’ve included a brief overview of each tool to help you quickly determine which ones are best suited to fit your needs.
“Caregivers should take advantage of all the help and assistance they can find.” –
"Nearly all Alzheimer’s or dementia caregivers at some time experience sadness, anxiety, loneliness, and exhaustion. Seeking help and support along the way is not a luxury; it’s a necessity."
– Help Guide
"Whether you are a new caregiver or have been helping someone for years, you can draw on the experiences of other caregivers and Alzheimer’s care professionals to provide the best care possible for the person with Alzheimer’s in your life."
