If you choose medication as part of your treatment, it’s important to understand that different medicines impact people differently.

Work closely with your care team to identify the right option for you. Be sure to clearly communicate what you hope the medication will help with, what benefits you notice, and discuss any side effects you experience.

It can also be helpful to keep a log of how the medication affects you over time, so your doctor can review the data with you and ensure your needs are being met.

Let us help you build connection instead of control.

November is National Family Caregiver Month! 💜

We want to recognize the compassion, sacrifice, and quiet strength it takes to care for the people we love.

If you’re a caregiver, please remember: you deserve care too!!

This month, we encourage all caregivers to explore respite care options, reach out to community supports, and get help before you reach burnout. You don’t have to do this work alone.

Let us help you rest, recover, and continue this work with the support you deserve.
