Thank you I currently have a 56 year old family member that has been consigned to " gereatric" care home ,( for lack of placement! ) The "Staff" is very caring but resident Dr. has several other "facilities" to monitor. My family member was promised a neurologist assessment for " Dementia or Brain Trauma. The facility is not equipped for "extended physical or speech therapy".

Whether you or a loved one have been diagnosed, knowing you’re not alone and having a supportive team that can answer your questions is one of the best ways of learning about Alzheimer's Disease and what life can be. To find a support group near you, we recommend asking your health care team, searching online, or doing a social media search. We don’t have specific groups that we endorse because you have to find the one that works best for you.
