Caring for someone with dementia can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. This presentation will introduce key local resources available to support individuals living with dementia and the families who care for them. Learn about specialized programs such as Emory’s Integrated Memory Care (IMC), the new CMS GUIDE model for dementia care, and local Adult Day Programs that provide supervision, engagement, and respite for caregivers. Participants will gain a clearer understanding of how these services work, who qualifies, and how to access the support that can make caregiving more manageable.
