As the holiday season approaches, we want to take a moment to express our gratitude for all of you. Every donation, every kind word, and every time you've shown up for TMDF, has given us the support and encouragement we have needed to continue furthering our mission of advancing the comprehensive care of those with Alzheimer's and related diseases. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to make a local and global impact.

Today, in honor of International Men’s Day and Caregivers Month, we want to highlight one of our favorites: Andrew Dougherty.

Andrew has been dedicated to learning and educating others about cognitive disorders since the age of 14 when he began volunteering for Alzheimer's Tennessee, Inc. As the son of Dr. John Dougherty this was a natural fit for him and he carries on this advocacy today with new meaning as he honors his dad and his battle with lewy body disease.

Today, Andrew spoke at the Oak Ridge Senior Resource Networking event on brain health and the power of early diagnosis, sharing his insights and experiences to help raise awareness and support for caregivers everywhere.

At TMDF, we know that caregivers are the backbone of memory care. Andrew’s story reminds us of the profound impact one person can have in improving the lives of those affected by Alzheimer’s and related dementias.

Thank you, Andrew, for your tireless commitment and for showing that care, compassion, and love truly make a difference.

Caregivers are the backbone of courage, compassion, and connection in the face of Alzheimer’s and dementia.

This National Family Caregivers Month, we recognize all caregivers. The spouses, children, friends, neighbors, and community members who show up every day with love and patience.

At the Tennessee Memory Disorders Foundation, we see the strength of caregivers firsthand and are here to support you. Our caregiver support groups provide education, connection, and encouragement to help you navigate the challenges of Alzheimer’s and related dementias.

To every caregiver — we see you, we thank you, and we honor you. 💜

The Tennessee Memory Disorder Foundation is proud to highlight Amber Tayman, BSN, MSN, MPH, for her leadership in developing a new Continuing Medical Education (CME) course designed to strengthen early detection and diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias across the state.

This initiative is part of the Tennessee Dementia Action Collaborative (TDAC) and supports Goal 3 of the State Alzheimer’s and Related Dementias Plan to ensure an adequately prepared healthcare workforce. Through this collaboration, TMDF and TDAC are working to expand dementia education, training, and resources for healthcare professionals statewide.

Last week, Dr. Monica K. Crane completed filming for the course, which will be offered free of charge to clinicians throughout Tennessee to remove barriers to education and access.

With over 129,000 Tennesseans aged 65 and older living with Alzheimer’s disease, initiatives like this are essential in equipping clinicians to recognize cognitive changes early and connect patients to the right care.

We’re grateful for Amber’s dedication, Dr. Crane’s expertise, and the contributions of our Public Health Intern in making this project possible — all working together to advance dementia education and care in our state.
