Tips for caregivers

Small things that help the person you care for.

Keep routines predictable. Use the same words and tone. Break tasks into small steps. Place important items in the same spot each time.

Take care of yourself too — a rested caregiver is a better caregiver. The Alzheimer's Association 24/7 helpline (US) is 800-272-3900.
