Having a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease or a related dementia can be incredibly demanding.
People in this situation experience a variety of feelings.
The demands of the disease can make it difficult to stay in touch with friends and family, and can lead to loneliness and isolation.
Our weekly/bi-weekly support groups for people with dementia provides participants an opportunity to:
- Learn about living with dementia and its progression,
- Share feelings and common experiences,
- Exchange practical coping strategies, and
- Participate in discussions.
