November is both Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness Month and National Family Caregivers Month — a time to honor the strength, compassion, and dedication of those caring for loved ones living with dementia. 💙

Engaging activities can make a meaningful difference for people with Alzheimer’s disease — promoting connection, joy, and quality of life. Whether through art, music, or gentle movement, these moments help preserve dignity and spark memories.

At UCI Health Geriatrics, we’re committed to supporting individuals with Alzheimer’s and their caregivers through education, clinical care, and community resources.

Caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s can be challenging, but small steps can make a big difference:
1️⃣ Pause and notice what might be wrong.
2️⃣ Take action to meet unmet needs.
3️⃣ Focus on the trigger, not the behavior.
4️⃣ Redirect with empathy and understanding.

🌿 When we lead with patience and awareness, we create calmer, more supportive moments for our loved ones.
