Receiving a medical diagnosis of memory loss can be very stressful for both patient and family alike. Studies show family caretakers experience significant stress often leading to debilitating depression and declining physical health. For this reason, Family Support & Education is an integral part of our treatment program. Important questions about memory loss, how it is treated, legal issues to be considered, and what to look for in the patient over time are foremost in the minds of families. It also provides emotional support, education, and practical advice about how caretakers can deal with their own stress while caring for the patient.
