Coming from someone to cares for someone else with Alzheimers, everything you said here was spot on.

Is it possible for transcripts of video's to be provided? It is sometimes difficult to view video's with a LO present.

If you click on the video and then click on the word YOUTUBE in the lower-right-hand corner, it will take you to this video on YouTube's site. There, below the video there are options. If you are on a PC, there are 3 dots that give you more options when you click it. One of those extra options is a TRANSCRIPT. Click it and a transcript will appear alongside the video. Hope this helps.

Good video,however my experience and every person is different.is that keeping a person engaged is all consuming.Despite the fact we have a Care Plan,go out everyday to different activities with different people it seems it is not enough.I am up all day and kept awake most of the night now.There is not unlimited resources and only so much a person can do.

With experience in dementia caregiving, public education, and Alzheimer’s-focused writing—and a professional research background shaped in what many consider one of the world’s top laboratories—I work to make complex findings clear, practical, and genuinely helpful for families and professionals providing care.

This site was inspired by my Mom’s autoimmune dementia.

It is a place where we separate out the wheat from the chafe, the important articles & videos from each week’s river of news. Google gets a new post on Alzheimer’s or dementia every 7 minutes. That can overwhelm anyone looking for help. This site filters out, focuses on and offers only the best information. it has helped hundreds of thousands of people since it debuted in 2007. Thanks to our many subscribers for your supportive feedback.

The site is dedicated to all those preserving the dignity of the community of people living with dementia.
