This site was inspired by my Mom’s autoimmune dementia.
It is a place where we separate out the wheat from the chafe, the important articles & videos from each week’s river of news. Google gets a new post on Alzheimer’s or dementia every 7 minutes. That can overwhelm anyone looking for help. This site filters out, focuses on and offers only the best information. it has helped hundreds of thousands of people since it debuted in 2007. Thanks to our many subscribers for your supportive feedback.
The site is dedicated to all those preserving the dignity of the community of people living with dementia.

I totally agree! Of course it’s a tremendous challenge to react to people with dementia always patiently and wise, however, it’s the inner attitude: we are here for a reason, let’s make the best of it and, certainly let’s be aware of human dignity. Been a caregiver to my husband…
I so totally agree and love your teachings Teepa Snow ,I recommend watching your videos through my care home training.
My husband goes to Day Care one day a week and it is a wonderful break for both us. I do not refer to it as Day Care,as to him it means he is a child and not in control. I refer to it by the location.Protecting his dignity is maybe more important then making sure he has his pills etc. He is and has always been a very proud gentleman.
