Taking Care of the Caregivers (Video)

The Michigan Alzheimer's Disease Center has created a video on their amazing new program called "Catching Your Breath" that's held at Matthaei Botanical Gardens each month. The programs are designed to promote health and well-being for family caregivers and adults living with memory loss or dementia.

According to its website, the MADC was "established at the University of Michigan Health System, through affiliation with the Department of Neurology . . . and aims to a) conduct and promote research on Alzheimer’s disease and related disorders; b) ensure state-of-the-art care for individuals experiencing cognitive impairment or dementia; and c) enhance the public’s and health professionals’ understanding of dementia through education and outreach efforts."

For more information about Catching Your Breath, read a story in the winter 2013 Matthaei-Nichols newsletter or visit the MADC website.
