Prepare for the holidays with tips from the Alzheimer’s Association

Posted by Roman Bloemke | December 1, 2015 | Leave a Comment

The holidays are often filled with sharing, laughter and the enjoyment of each other’s company. But they can also be filled with stress, disappointment and sadness. A person with Alzheimer’s disease may feel a special sense of loss during the holidays because of the challenges he or she has experienced. At the same time, caregivers may feel overwhelmed with the responsibility of maintaining traditions while caring for a friend or family member.

The holidays can be less stressful for everyone when activities are planned ahead of time. The Alzheimer’s Association® offers resources like the Holidays information sheet as well as the Holidays and Alzheimer’s Families page on alz.org/care to help caregivers approach the season and make celebrations more enjoyable for all.

During this season of togetherness, people visit with friends and family they rarely see face-to-face, providing an opportunity to notice the 10 Warning Signs of Alzheimer’s Disease. If you observe any of these signs in a friend or family member, it’s important to see a doctor to determine the cause. Early detection allows people to plan for the future and live well for as long as possible.
