It’s good to know that there are resources out there to help people with issues such as Alzheimer’s Disease. Often when we think of Alzheimer’s, we think of older people. But the disease impacts on people of all ages. It’s great to know that if you have to try and explain to children the what’s and how’s of Alzheimer’s that there are places and people that can help.

I’m always happy to compile these sorts of lists as I know they will be of help.

Cheers, Liz

WOW! What a fabulous post, Liz…thanks so much! I’m an Activities Designee in a long-term care facility…we have a special care unit for residents in the beginning to middle stages of AD; working closely with our Social Services Dept., we are making every effort to to continually improve the quality of care and activities these residents receive. I have noticed that one area where we are lacking is the ability to provide information for families who are bringing their children to visit loved ones; the children are often nervous and appear confused or even afraid. I started looking for information to share and found your post…wonderful links, which I will be sure to use!

Fabulous, Liz! This is a great list of resources for helping children and young people understand better why family members have this disease and how to cope with it…also how to enjoy the person their loved one has become.
