Families who understand this best are often those impacted by dementia or Alzheimer\u2019s. While these diagnoses can be frightening, knowing where to turn to find support is extremely helpful.<\/p>\n<h2>Local Support Groups<\/h2>\n<p>No one understands what a day in the life of a family caregiver looks like better than another family caregiver, and that is why finding local support groups can be so helpful. These groups provide insight into coping mechanisms that have worked for others and resources that have helped them to provide the most effective care for their loved ones with dementia. Many support groups are offered through local chapters of the Alzheimer\u2019s Association, and some meet at local hospitals and community centers. Ask your doctor or home care provider for assistance in locating these beneficial groups.<\/p>\n<h2>Books<\/h2>\n<p>There are many excellent books on the subject of Alzheimer\u2019s and dementia. Some of our top recommendations include:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"list\">\n<li>The 36-Hour Day: A Family Guide to Caring for People with Alzheimer \u2019s disease, Other Dementias, and Memory Loss in Later Life<\/li>\n<li>Mayo Clinic Guide to Alzheimer\u2019s Disease: The Essential Resource for Treatment, Coping and Caregiving<\/li>\n<li>Alzheimer\u2019s Early Stages: First Steps for Family, Friends and Caregivers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These books contain a wealth of valuable information from industry professionals as well as coping mechanisms and an easy to understand explanation of what Alzheimer\u2019s is and how it impacts the brain.<\/p>\n<h2>Internet<\/h2>\n<p>Another key resource that can help you in your role as a caregiver is the Internet. Surfing the web provides you with valuable information about the stages of Alzheimer\u2019s, effective coping skills, when it is time to seek medical assistance and the avenues available to you if you need assistance in providing care for your loved one. Some websites to keep handy include:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"list\">\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/Aarp.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Aarp.org<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/Alzheimers.gov\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Alzheimers.gov<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/Alz.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Alz.org<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/Medicare.gov\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Medicare.gov<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/Socialsecurity.gov\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Socialsecurity.gov<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Respite Care<\/h2>\n<p>Perhaps one of the most important resources that every family caregiver of a person with Alzheimer\u2019s or dementia can benefit from is <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.salushomecare.com\/san-diego\/home-care\/respite-care\/\">respite care<\/a><\/strong>. This type of care provides you with time away so you can take care of yourself. It can help you to avoid caregiver burnout, take care of your own healthcare needs and even find time to maintain a career or a family. Some families receive respite assistance from other family members or friends. Others enlist the help of an in home care agency. Whatever way you choose to find respite care, make it a priority, and use it regularly.<\/p>\n<h2>Counseling<\/h2>\n<p>As part of the process of taking care of yourself, consider participating in professional counseling. Counseling can help you to understand the emotions you are facing as a family caregiver and learn new coping skills for dealing with a loved one with dementia. Counseling also assists you in facing the changes that will come with the different stages of this disease and plan for your loved one\u2019s future care needs while avoiding negative feelings like guilt or resentment.<\/p>\n<p>As a caregiver for an individual with dementia or Alzheimer\u2019s, never forget that it is important to take care of yourself. This not only benefits you as an individual, but it makes you a more effective, compassionate caregiver and can improve the relationship you have with your loved one who has been diagnosed with this disease.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.salushomecare.com\/san-diego\/\"><strong>Salus Homecare<\/strong><\/a> offers respite services to caregivers because we believe in the benefits that this type of assistance provides.
