Moving into a memory care facility can be a significant transition for both the individual and their family. Preplanning allows for a smoother transition by addressing logistical concerns, such as arranging transportation, coordinating with healthcare providers, and familiarizing the individual with their new surroundings.

Preplanning encourages open communication with family members and loved ones. It allows for discussions about care preferences, financial planning, and future decisions regarding healthcare and quality of life. Involving family members in the preplanning process can help reduce stress and ensure that everyone is on the same page.

Have you found that the most helpful part of an educational event is often the Q&A portion of the program when care partners share their experiences and ideas?

Often, the most valuable information presented in family support groups, and dementia education comes from the other family care partners who have "been there and done that".

Are you a Newbie or a Pro? You can ask AND answer the questions along with a supportive network of people who are in varying stages of taking care of someone with dementia.

Each month, we will have a guest speaker and have time to network

Join us in person or via Zoom. Once registered you will receive the Zoom link.

Networking is the process of making connections and building relationships. These connections can provide you with advice and contacts, which can help you make informed care decisions and ask questions that you didn't know to ask.
