University of Indianapolis is providing a course for caregivers:

INDIANAPOLIS — One in four adults provides caregiving services to individuals in need, but many of those caregivers are thrust into those positions and may have little to no training or experience.…

Prostate cancer is such a difficult cancer to address. I am hopeful this research will bring new treatments.

This is a great article that highlights how quickly our actions can snowball when dementia begins to take hold.

Politics aside, many in our population are taken advantage of by solicitations for donations for various causes and from outright scams for money.

Having a Power of Attorney review bank statements can help identify unusual activity quickly before it becomes a bigger issue.

A CNN investigation reveals how deceptive political fundraising has misled hundreds of elderly Americans.

If you have dementia or know someone with dementia, I strongly recommend watching this short clip that gives a perspective of what it is like living with dementia from someone who has dementia.

It’s an old clip I posted on my own personal timeline in 2017, but it is still so very relevant today.

It is always so comforting to see new ways to engage those with dementia in their daily life and to further connect with them.

Long ago, I cooked the evening meal at a nursing home for two years as I paid my way through undergrad and I saw how important meals can be for residents.

One of the things I tell people who ask “what facility should I look at?” is “take a tour with a meal and see how it tastes because a good meal is something to look forward to every day.”

From nourishment to comfort and sensory experiences, food feeds our bodies and our minds.

A care home invites residents to share their memories of favourite foods for a new cook book.
