Jane W. - Person Living with Dementia
“It’s difficult to navigate through the health system with a complex medical condition like dementia. The program has been the missing link for me. [DCS] has been there to help me and my doctors communicate in a medical system frustrated by limited time and money. She’s made my life so much more manageable which lets me be my best.”
Caregivers
“For a terrible situation, I always felt better after our visits and conversations. I wouldn’t have made it through this year without both [DCS and DCA]. Thank goodness your program exits.”
“The Program has turned my life around. I now have a grip on things. I do not feel totally overwhelmed. I have been given some counseling and adult day care… I can honestly say [the DCS] has sort of saved me.”
“Our DCS has supported us and provided us with resources and information that is invaluable. I wish more people had access to people like [DCS] and programs like this.”
Geriatrician
“The Program is great and I felt it was extremely helpful to me as a physician… It’s very collaborative. Wonderful work!”
