How to Be the Best Caregiver for Your Loved One with Alzheimer's or Dementia, Episode 111

Caregiving for someone with Alzheimer’s or dementia holds its special challenges. Jennifer Fink of the Fading Memories Podcast is with us to share her caregiving experience.  Jennifer became the caregiver for her mom after the death of her dad.  Experiencing all the frustration and challenges, Jennifer looked for podcasts that could help.  After not finding what she needed, Jennifer launched the Fading Memories podcast.  The podcast content is designed to help anyone who is providing care for someone with Alzheimer’s or dementia.  According to the Fading Memories Podcast website, “Jennifer is the daughter, granddaughter & great-granddaughter of women who suffered from Alzheimer’s or other cognitive impairment. Looking for answers on how not to become the fourth generation with this problem while also seeking ways to connect better with her Mom has led her on this interesting journey with her new passion, podcasting”.  The website provides support through the podcast, articles, recipes, and resources.  You can connect with Jennifer at fadingmemoriespodcast.com and on her Facebook page.  Find the podcast on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.  Don’t miss this great resource for Alzheimer’s and dementia caregivers!
