ACA offers many services to support families and caregivers affected by Alzheimer’s

Alzheimer’s and Dementia: A Family Disease

For every person living with Alzheimer’s and dementia, there is an entire family that is affected. The heart of what we do is helping families keep their loved one at home. Homecare isn’t always an option for many reasons including finances and the health and ability of the caregivers. ACA’s services give relief to specific challenges families face as their loved one progresses from needing supervision to custodial care to nursing care. ACA helps families living with dementia who cannot afford the basics of good care: safety, respite, hygiene and nutrition. Read about our services below:
