Supporting Families Through the Dementia Journey
At Golden Pond, we recognize that dementia impacts not only those diagnosed, but also the families who love and care for them. Navigating this journey can be overwhelming, and meaningful support can make a lasting difference.
We are pleased to offer a Family Support Group for caregivers and loved ones of individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. This group is designed to foster connection, understanding, and shared learning in a supportive environment.
Topics include:
Enhancing visits and communication
Practical caregiving approaches
Understanding changes associated with dementia
Self-care strategies for caregivers
Sessions focus on validating emotions, building coping skills, and creating a sense of community among participants who truly understand one another’s experiences.
The group is facilitated by Marci Gerke, LPN, Regional Director of Memory Care Services, whose experience and compassionate approach help ensure each session is both informative and supportive.
