Alzheimer's research

Recently, I asked my weekly newsletter subscribers for suggestions as to topics they would like to see addressed on my blog. One reader requested that I write about the latest research into the causes and treatment of Alzheimer’s disease.

That’s a tough assignment! Why? Because despite many decades of research, it seems as if we still know so little about this common type of dementia.

What I decided to do today is offer you an update on what I believe are 4 of the most fascinating developments in Alzheimer’s research. Please let me know if you find this helpful, and I’ll be happy to post more updates in the future.

Intergenerational nursing home programs

I love to hear about intergenerational programs in nursing homes and other senior care communities. We all know that they benefit not only the residents but also the younger people.

When I decided to write about this topic, I was planning to limit it to one post. But, I ended up discovering so many excellent programs that I chose to split the information into two posts.

Today I’m sharing 6 of these creative programs. I’ll briefly describe each one. Then, if you’re interested in developing a program at your facility, you can click on the links to contact each organization directly.

Top nursing home programs

Sometimes, nursing homes develop exceptional programs, but then they try to keep the ideas to themselves. To some degree, this makes sense since nursing homes compete for resident admissions.

However, I believe we all need to work together and share our ideas. This allows us to provide the highest quality of life for nursing home residents everywhere. That’s why I’m always thrilled when you tell me about unique programs at your facilities.
