Alzheimer’s is a devastating disease. It causes short- and long-term memory loss, difficulties with thinking and problem-solving, and changes in personality and mood. It’s usually progressive. Because of fear and lack of understanding of the personality changes, people with dementia can sometimes become isolated. There’s no cure, but Nanaimo Lifeline can help. We offer a daily check-in phone call service to help provide comfort to those who have lost social connections. It’s a small thing that means the world to many of our clients.
