Welcome to the place where I share dementia tips, strategies, and information for family members caring for a loved one with any type of dementia (such as Alzheimer's disease, Lewy Body dementia, vascular dementia, frontotemporal dementia, etc.)

Today’s video is all about the struggles involved in deciding whether to place your loved one with dementia in a nursing home. No matter what type of dementia your loved one has (Alzheimer’s disease, Lewy Body dementia, or Frontotemporal dementia), there may come a time when you have to think about whether your loved one may need nursing home care. This is no easy decision and today’s video walks you through how a fellow careblazer came to terms with deciding to place her husband with dementia.

In case you haven’t met me, my name is Natali Edmonds and I am a board certified geropsychologist. That means that I am a clinical psychologist who specializes in working with older adults. One day, while hiking a trail, I came up with the idea for Careblazers and I decided to see if posting videos online could provide help to the many other Careblazers in the world who don’t get to have help come directly to them in their homes. I hope that this work helps you in some way on your caregiving journey.
