Free Community Alzheimer's & Dementia Training

• Nearly 100,000 Alabama residents have Alzheimer’s disease, with thousands more experiencing other types of dementia. • Family caregivers provide over 230 million hours of unpaid care every year. • 60% of caregivers suffer from their own chronic health conditions, and close to 30% also suffer from depression. If someone you love has Alzheimer’s Disease or another form of dementia, of course you want to help in any way you can. But how do you support them through the loss of their memory and independence? What can you expect at different stages of the disease? And how do you make sure your own health doesn’t suffer in the process? Southern Cross Home Care, a local women-owned business, is dedicated to the health and wellbeing of families in our community. Our experienced caregivers provide in-home care throughout the Mobile area, ranging from a few hours of companionship to 24/7 total care for bedbound and hospice clients. We’ve seen what you’re going through, and we know how to help. Come join us for a FREE training session focused on Alzheimer’s Disease and dementia. Learn about the physical causes of dementia, how to provide a safe environment for your loved one, what kind of activities you can do together to reignite memories, and more.
