Family and Caregiver Support

Compassionate Care for Those Who Care the Most

Caring for a loved one with dementia is a journey that can be as rewarding as it is challenging. At Memory Connect, we understand that caregivers and family members play an essential role in supporting those living with memory loss. That’s why we are committed to supporting you—the caregivers—by providing the resources, guidance, and emotional care you need to maintain your well-being while caring for your loved one.

Being a caregiver often means putting the needs of others before your own, but your health and well-being are just as important. Our services are designed to help you navigate the physical, emotional, and mental demands of caregiving, ensuring that you’re not overwhelmed.

• Respite Care: Taking time for yourself is crucial. Our respite care services provide short-term relief so that you can rest, recharge, and care for your own health while knowing your loved one is in capable hands.
• Support Groups: Share your experiences, frustrations, and successes with others who truly understand. Our support groups offer a safe space to connect with other caregivers, exchange advice, and find comfort in a community of shared understanding.
• Education and Resources: From managing daily tasks to learning about the progression of dementia, our caregiver resources include guides, workshops, and expert tips to help you feel more confident and capable in your role.

Guiding an Improved Dementia Experience (GUIDE) is a new Medicare program designed to offer enhanced care coordination and support for individuals living with dementia, as well as the caregivers who support them. GUIDE provides personalized care, resources, and tools to help manage the complexities of dementia, ensuring that both patients and their caregivers receive the comprehensive support they need.

If you’re a caregiver supporting a loved one through their dementia journey and assisting with daily tasks like bathing, dressing, managing medications, or handling finances, the GUIDE program could offer valuable support. Learn more and get the help you deserve today.

If your loved one is already a GUIDE participant, please contact your Care Navigator to:

• Participate in our virtual support groups: Connect with other caregivers who understand your challenges and can offer advice, empathy, and solidarity.
• Utilize our 24/7 support line: Access round-the-clock support from professionals who can provide guidance, answer questions, and offer reassurance whenever caregiving becomes difficult or overwhelming. You’re never alone, no matter the time of day.
• Coordinate respite care: Learn about services that provide temporary relief for caregivers so you can take care of your own well-being.

At Memory Connect, we believe that no caregiver should feel alone. We foster a compassionate, connected community that supports caregivers and families, creating a network of shared experiences and mutual encouragement. Whether it’s through peer support groups, educational workshops, or one-on-one consultations, we are here to walk alongside you on this journey.

One caregiver shared their experience: “Memory Connect gave me the tools and support I needed to care for my mom without losing myself in the process. The emotional and practical support I received made all the difference.”

You don’t have to navigate dementia care alone. At Memory Connect, we’re here to provide you with the support, resources, and understanding you need to care for your loved one while maintaining your own well-being. Our team is ready to listen, guide, and help you find the right solutions for your family.
