Helping You Care for Someone with Alzheimer’s Disease

Caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s disease is one of the most profound challenges a person can face. It calls for patience, creativity, and strength—but also knowledge. The more you understand about the disease, the more confident and compassionate your care can become.

The good news is that no caregiver is alone. Millions of families across the United States are walking the same path—and new research and resources are emerging every day to make that journey easier.

As of 2025, an estimated 7.2 million Americans age 65 and older are living with Alzheimer’s dementia. More than 11 million family members and unpaid caregivers provide over 18 billion hours of care each year, offering love and stability that no medication can replace. However, caregiving can also take a toll—on health, finances, and emotional well-being—making access to reliable guidance essential.
