Adult day centers

Adult day centers can benefit those living with Alzheimer's and their caregivers. They are a safe space for clients to interact throughout the day with no shame of "forgetting my words". Caregivers are given a few hours of respite to have some time for themselves.

It's a win-win situation for all.

I was fortunate enough to sit down and learn more about adult day centers with Jessica Curtis, Executive Director of The Tender. You can view our interview below.
