Welcome. About this Site.
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.

Where is it and how much does it cost?
There are 3 in Ohio, Madison, Ashtabula, and I believe Chagrin Falls. There is a suite cost plus cost for care. The cost for care depends on how much care is required. We are mid-range in the care cost. Our total cost is less than most nursing homes in the area. The down side is you provide all your own furnishings and consumables. i.e. your own furniture, sheets, towels, toilet paper, soaps, shampoos, etc.
Do residents ever get to go outside?
My mom is in one of their facilities. Yes, they are taken outside when the weather is nice. They also go on adventures – out to lunch or short shopping trips.
Select individuals get to go outside for very short periods of time. Alot don't. See any windows? it's all artificial lite.
