Dementia Caregiving Tip: Keep a “Yes, and…” mindset. Instead of correcting a loved one’s confusion, go with their reality and gently guide the conversation. It reduces stress for both of you and keeps the bond strong. #DementiaCare #Caregiving #alzheimers

This is very good advice. At times it can be very tempting to give in and be more controlling. In the end it isn't worth it.

Assistive Access is a game changer for loved ones who need a more simple, more accessible version of Iphone with guardrails that give YOU a little more peace of mind.

If you haven't watched the Netflix show "Man on the Inside" yet, we recommend it! The comedy series is both a realistic look at a very bougie senior living facility, and also a parody at the same time. Give it a shot!
