Being a caregiver for a loved one with dementia presents its own unique set of circumstances.
The progressive, terminal effects of dementia pose the ongoing need for caregivers to educate themselves on changes occurring with their loved one.
The goal of the Edel Caregiver Institute is to develop a Community of Caregivers, a place for family caregivers like yourself to share information about caring for their loved one struggling with dementia.
Our Dementia Caregiver Support Group addresses emotional support along with:
• Dementia education
• How to “respond” instead of “react”
• Problem solving
• Asking questions and a place to process “why’s”
• Share and learn ideas on coping as a caregiver for someone living with dementia
• Fellowship with other caregivers sharing your concerns, struggles, and questions about caring for a loved one with dementia
.
The Group is facilitated by Jill Costello, Certified Independent Dementia Consultant and Trainer under Teepa Snow’s Positive Approach to Caregiving®.
Individual caregiver consultations are also available.
.
Please note this group is for family caregivers of a loved one with dementia or memory issues only.
