Patient & Caregiver Education
Our Commitment to Caregiver Support
At the Memory and Aging Center, we are committed to providing patients with up to date, professional and comprehensive evaluations. We have an entire team dedicated to treating dementia disorders and offering the support families and caregivers often need when faced with a loved one's diagnosis. Together with our physicians, behavioral health team, nursing staff, social workers, community health workers, and occupational therapists, we offer support every step of the way from the first evaluation through late stage disease progression. We understand the difficult role of the caregiver and strive to provide education and resources throughout the journey.
