💜 Today is World Alzheimer’s Day 💜

At Homewatch CareGivers of Southwest Austin, Alzheimer’s awareness is personal to us. We have the privilege of supporting individuals living with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia, as well as the families and caregivers walking alongside them. 💜

We see the love that goes into caregiving. We also see the difficult days, the questions, the exhaustion, and sometimes the feeling of not knowing what to do next.

So today, we want to go beyond simply raising awareness. We want to invite our community to take action.

There are so many ways to make a difference, and they don’t all have to be big.

🔗 We are sharing a link below from the Alzheimer’s Association with opportunities to volunteer and get involved. But you can also make a difference right where you are.
💌 Reach out to someone caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s and ask how they’re doing.
🤝 Offer them a little help or a break.
💜 Spend time with someone living with dementia.
📚 Learn more about the disease so you can better understand what families may be going through.
🙋 Volunteer, advocate, donate, or simply share a helpful resource.
This World Alzheimer’s Day, we invite you to choose one thing.

One conversation. One hour. One act of kindness. One opportunity to learn or help. 💜

Small actions can mean a lot to a family navigating Alzheimer’s.

A couple of weeks ago we had the opportunity to bring the Dementia Live experience to the Caregiving Cafe! 🎉

The Caregiving Cafe is an in-person and virtual gathering led by Lynn and Gina at St. Paul Catholic Church. This group serves as a support group to all those who are family caregivers. This is a safe place where people share their experiences as a caregiver and the Caregiving Cafe team provides resources and support to help with caregiver burnout.

We teamed up to have the members go through the Dementia Live experience to have a better understanding of what their loved ones living with dementia are going through. This gives them great tools to relief some of the stress and burnout they may experience from their care by increasing their knowledge, patience, and empathy.

If you would like to partner and bring this experience to the Southwest Austin community, please reach out to us via private message. 🤝
