✨ Clarity is Kindness: What We May Be Doing Wrong in Caregiving ✨

Caregiving for someone on a dementia journey is an act of deep love. Yet sometimes, what feels natural may not fully meet our loved one where they are.

In this week’s webinar, we take an honest look at familiar caregiving habits—why they happen, and how we can shift them to bring more comfort, dignity, and connection. ❤️

This program may challenge assumptions, and that’s by design. Growth in caregiving comes when we reflect, learn, and lean into kindness with clarity.

Families often strive to include loved ones with dementia in visits and gatherings, recognizing the value for that person’s cognitive and emotional health. What’s less apparent, but equally powerful, are the benefits for the rest of the family.

At all of our Anthem communities we witness it daily: shared smiles, laughter, and stronger bonds that uplift everyone involved. Here’s how spending time with a loved one living with dementia can enrich your entire family:

Families with loved ones living with dementia often find themselves struggling to find a meaningful path forward that doesn’t isolate their loved one from the family dynamics.

💙 Clarity is Kindness: An Honest Conversation on Dementia Caregiving 💙

Caregiving in dementia support is often led by love—but sometimes instinct can get in the way of insight. This program invites families and care partners to gently reflect on patterns that may feel natural, but don’t always serve our loved ones where they are in their journey.

✨ Together we’ll explore:

✔ Why some “common sense” approaches may unintentionally cause distress
✔ How humility and curiosity can lead to more compassionate choices
✔ Real family stories that inspired this eye-opening conversation

If you’ve ever thought, “I was only trying to help,” this session is for you.

This is not about blame—it’s about love, understanding, and becoming the kind of care partners we aspire to be. Because when we know better, we love better. 💜

RSVP today: 49f19174-9a13-49c5-a3eb-f361e7d7fa08@22190dc0-dae4-47ab-a5ea-7abf4bcfd001" rel="ugc" target="_blank">https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/49f19174-9a13-49c5-a3eb-f361e7d7fa08@22190dc0-dae4-47ab-a5ea-7abf4bcfd001

We had a staff appreciation event yesterday, but we couldn't let the residents not have a chance to dunk some of our directors in the dunk tank as well. Dunk tank and a pie eating contest, and lots of laughs to be had.
