Why do advance directives matter for families caring for loved ones with dementia?

As dementia progresses, it can become harder for individuals to communicate their medical wishes and healthcare preferences. Advance directives help ensure their voice is still heard—while giving family caregivers guidance, clarity, and peace of mind during difficult moments.

Planning ahead can:
✔ Honor your loved one’s wishes
✔ Reduce stress and uncertainty
✔ Help guide important medical decisions
✔ Improve communication with healthcare providers
✔ Prevent family conflict during emotional times

Advance care planning is not just about medical paperwork—it’s about protecting dignity, compassion, and quality of life. 🤍

ACTS2 is here to support caregivers with education, resources, and referrals every step of the journey.

Planning ahead is one of the greatest gifts family caregivers can give their loved ones.

For individuals living with dementia, advance directives help ensure their medical wishes, values, and preferences are understood and honored as their needs change over time. These important conversations can reduce stress, guide healthcare decisions, and bring peace of mind to families during difficult moments.

This infographic walks caregivers through simple steps to begin advance care planning—from starting the conversation to choosing a trusted healthcare decision-maker and safely storing important documents.

You don’t have to navigate this journey alone. ACTS2 is here to support caregivers with education, resources, and compassionate guidance every step of the way. 🤍

This workshop provides important information about the health, emotional, and spiritual benefits of palliative care for older adults with dementia and their family caregivers.

Caregivers typically receive little or no information from their health care providers about the impact of palliative care on the quality of life for their loved ones with dementia.

Here’s your opportunity to get the inside scoop!

Featured presenters, Fabiola Jean-Charles and Chris Morissette, will cover key topics, including what palliative care really is and its impact on quality of life; when to consider using palliative care; the best methods for accessing these services; and how to obtain insurance coverage for palliative care.

Tomeka Norton-Brown will highlight opportunities for free skills training, problem-solving consultation, and support for family caregivers of older adults with dementia. She will also talk about her personal caregiving experiences in using palliative care.

Current and future caregivers, elder care professionals, and other interested community members are strongly encouraged to join the workshop.
