Westchester Family Care Inc

Westchester Family Care Inc Who are we? We are you In September 2010, my mother, my mother-in-law and my aunt were all diagnosed with Alzheimer’s Disease. We were devastated and needless to say we were overwhelmed. We were unsure about what to expect. What were our options? We knew we had work to do and our journey began. We learned about Alzheimer’s and dementia and about current treatments which were available. We learned how to properly care for our loved ones. We also learned that we needed to care for ourselves. We learned a lot and we continue to learn.We quickly realized that sharing what we had learned through our experience was not only helpful to others but gratifying for us. So why do we care? We care because we understand the pain, the sadness and the confusion. We’ve been there.
