Description

Provides Resources for Enhancing Alzheimer's Caregiver Health (REACH). This program is an approach used by caregiver consultants to support family members and others who are caring for someone with Alzhiemer's disease or a related dementia. The goals are to teach caregivers how to reduce stress, solve problems, and manage difficult behaviors the person with memory loss may display; as well as to help caregivers feel confident in the care they provide and improve their ability to cope. After the caregiver completes the REACH assessment, 4 core sessions are offered and tailored to what the caregiver most needs. The caregiver consultant holds the sessions in person (though alternative service options may be available via phone) typically over 2 - 3 months.
