Re: help
Does the patient have Alzheimer's? Do they live alone? Is there family close by? Do they need full time help? Do they just need a sitter or a nurse? What stage of the disease are they? It would help to have more information.

Your best bet is to contact her doctor and ask what agencies are available in her area that will fit the level of care that they need? The local Alzheimer's Association may also be helpful.

Love, deb
