Foundation Offers Resources for Those With Alzheimer's and Dementia During Coronavirus

The Alzheimer's Foundation of America is still offering resources for guidance and help for those with Alzheimer's disease and dementia during the coronavirus pandemic, reports Action News Jax . People with Alzheimer's and dementia have difficulty understanding and following the pandemic, while many assisted living communities and persons with Alzheimer's depend on caregivers, who cannot travel to their homes because of the virus. The Alzheimer's Foundation has launched virtual programs for those living with mild cognitive impairment or in the early stages of Alzheimer's or another form of dementia and their care partners — including online support groups, exercise programs, and therapy.
