“Caregiving is a journey, not just a role—one that requires as much support for the caregiver as it does for the person receiving care.”
In the world of dementia care, we often focus on the needs of those living with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. But what about the caregivers—the unsung heroes who provide love, patience, and support every single day? Their well-being is just as crucial, and it’s time we start the conversation around how we can better support them.
At Memory Lane Games, we’ve seen firsthand the transformative power of connection and engagement. Our app not only stimulates the cognitive functions of those living with dementia but also serves as a vital resource for caregivers. With features designed to encourage reminiscence and foster meaningful conversations, we aim to create moments of joy and laughter that benefit both parties.
The results speak for themselves: 92% of caregivers reported feeling more relaxed after using our app, and 83% said it made their loved ones laugh. These moments of connection can be a lifeline, especially during challenging times like sundowning or wandering. I invite you to watch this insightful video that delves deeper into the importance of caring for caregivers while providing excellent care for those with dementia:
Together, we can create a supportive community that uplifts both caregivers and those they care for. #Dementia #Caregiver #Engagement
