Solutions

More than 7 Million Americans live with dementia, and the lifetime risk for dementia is 1 in 5 for women and 1 in 10 for men.

Dementia is a journey no one wants to travel. Caring for people living with dementia requires a special set of tools. Making strategic decisions, having the right tools and creating an intentional plan of care can make all the difference for care partners and the individual.

Dementia Education and Consulting can be that difference, including innovation and implementation in the following areas

  • Create a plan of purpose, defining roles by ability not by disease.
  • Anticipate unmet needs.
