If you’re currently struggling to care for a loved one with dementia, you’re not alone. According to AARP, “nearly 11.2 million Americans serve as unpaid caregivers for people with Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia, and 57 percent have been doing so for at least four years.”
If your parent or loved one is living with Alzheimer’s or another form of dementia, you face unique challenges as a caregiver. One of the most difficult is probably learning how to navigate the behavioral and personality changes that result from cognitive decline. It can be a stressful time, and it’s okay to ask for help and support. At some point, the care you’re able to provide on your own may not be enough to keep your loved one secure and healthy. That’s why having a care plan is essential.
Where Do I Start?

Pegasus Senior Living Health and Wellness Consultant Dr. Sandra Petersen, whose background in the memory care field spans over 30 years, inspired the novel approach of our Connections Program.
