Dementia Helpline: Dementia Support

Dementia is an all-inclusive term associated with a loss of cognitive function related to several neurological conditions. It describes different medical conditions and a group of symptoms affecting memory loss, cognitive problems, and psychological changes. Most causes of dementia are Alzheimer's; however, many different diseases can cause it as well. Dementia-related conditions affect millions of individuals globally.

A dementia diagnosis creates great uncertainty and the road ahead is confusing. It affects the person with the condition and everyone around them. There are many resources that will provide help and support for everybody involved.

Hello everyone! My name is Rebekah and I work at a skilled-care nursing facility in central Georgia. I have worked closely with residents with dementia for over 9 years and have gone through many, many different types of classes to help me work with them as effectively as possible. Since dementia can look different from person to person, each class I attended touched on different aspects of the disease. I look forward to offering help to anyone looking for assistance with their loved one and hope to help you navigate this tricky disease. Please reach out if you have any questions! Rebekah K.
