My father’s in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease, and my mother is overwhelmed caring for him 24/7. What help is available?
The Herr Adult Medical Day Care Center, operated by Daughters of Israel in West Orange, has a special program of activities for people with Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia. It operates five days a week and provides door-to-door transportation. A Caregivers Resource Center provides support groups and information, including planning for later care.
