SUPPORT GROUPS FOR CAREGIVER SUCCESS

Behind every member, there’s a family.

MCI, Alzheimer’s and other dementias are a “whole family disease” requiring “whole family support.” Family caregiving can be rewarding and all-consuming, and take a significant toll on a caregiver’s health.  The Ivey offers support groups to provide the assistance and reassurance you need to manage stress and take time for your own much-needed care. If you are interested in joining one of our support groups, please contact us by completing this form, emailing here, or calling 704-909-2070.

“We attend the sponsored caregiver support group and have received significant guidance and assistance with the Family Care Managers. From finding a senior community to ongoing trouble-shooting for specific issues – we have a trusted partner! Where would we be without you guys?! Eternally grateful for The Ivey, and its mission to support the dementia community.”         ~Dalia, family caregiver
