Our project titled “I’m still me” will focus on developing and implementing new attitudes and approaches to support people living with dementia, their families, and care partners by creating awareness breaking down barriers, assuaging myths of Dementia and Dementia related stigma through education and conversation.

Whether seniors need medical services, personal care, transportation, housekeeping or companionship, home care can help them live independently at home, for as long as possible – and provide peace of mind to their families.

We make home care simple – your dedicated Care Manager works with you to design a customized care plan to provide the support you need at home. Talk to your family about aging in place safely, with the supports you need.
