It’s been one week since we transitioned our Facebook profile to the DeWolf Innovation Center for Aging & Dementia.
If you’re new to our page, or just now seeing the update, we’re broadening our content to better support aging adults, adults with chronic conditions, and family caregivers who show up for them. That means:
*The same trusted support for family caregivers
*Expanded education around memory health
*Innovation in aging and dementia care
*More opportunities to connect with community resources

We are happy to have you here for the journey.

We want to hear from you!
Caregiving is a journey of highs and lows- demanding and emotional, yet deeply rewarding. We want to build a space where we can learn from one another. Share your stories, ask your questions, or offer advice for those just starting this journey. At the DeWolf Innovation Center, our greatest resource is the community within our walls.

The Family Caregivers Center page has officially leveled up to The DeWolf Innovation Center to Aging & Dementia!

As a reminder, the DeWolf Innovation Center includes:
-The Family Caregivers Center of Mercy
-Mercy Center for Memory Health
-Age & Dementia-Friendly Smart Showroom
-Community Connections

This update keeps things cohesive and allows us to offer information on family caregiving, innovation on aging & dementia, memory health education, and much more!

03/25/2026

The Family Caregivers Center’s Facebook profile will begin sharing more comprehensive information around aging and dementia. To reflect this change and keep things cohesive we will rename the profile to The DeWolf Innovation Center for Aging & Dementia.
Family caregivers will remain at the heart of our content, and you will still see helpful articles, caregiving tips, event updates, and fun activities! As we expand our subject matter, you will also see innovative insights, memory health education, and additional opportunities for support woven throughout.
This change will not impact you, but we wanted our audience to be aware of it to mitigate confusion. It’s also important to note that nothing is changing about the Family Caregivers Center itself, just the name of our social media page.
Thank you, and as always, we’re here to serve family caregivers in need, regardless of hospital or clinic affiliation. ❤️
