When a loved one begins showing signs of Dementia or Alzheimer’s, it is natural to want to focus on the moment. But one of the most helpful things you can do for both you and your loved one is to start planning for memory care early.

The reality is, memory care transitions take time. From researching facilities to completing medical forms, financial paperwork, and legal documents like powers of attorney, the process can quickly become overwhelming—especially in the middle of an emergency.

By preparing in advance, you give yourself the time and space to make thoughtful decisions, explore the best options, and avoid rushed choices under pressure. You also help ensure your loved one receives the right kind of care when they need it most.

Not sure where to start? A senior placement service can walk you through the process, connect you with local memory care communities, and help with the paperwork at no cost to you.

Planning ahead is one of the kindest things you can do. Give us a call anytime for assistance ➡️ 214-783-1222

Caring for someone with Dementia is a full-time job and everyone needs a break sometimes. ❤️

One often-overlooked resource? Faith-based organizations. Many churches and places of worship offer adult day stay programs where your loved one can spend a few hours or even the whole day in a safe and supportive environment.

These programs give caregivers time to rest, run errands, or simply recharge, knowing their loved one is being well cared for.

Other helpful resources to explore:
✔️ Local senior centers
✔️ The Alzheimer’s Association’s support groups and helplines
✔️ Community-based adult day programs

You do not have to do it all alone and you should not. Taking care of yourself is just as important as caring for your loved one. 💕
