Online Help Available for Alzheimer Patient’s Families

Every year, millions of people become victims of Alzheimer or other dementia-related illnesses all over the world. In Canada alone, almost half a million people suffer from this brain disease and considering this growth rate, it has been estimated that with the upcoming generation, the number will almost double.

In order to provide helpers, caregivers and other family members, a renowned set of information and tips regarding the care and love that such patients demand from them, recently, a new online training program has been developed.

There are free training sessions in this online program that makes sure to introduce the caregivers to substantial information regarding the disease. Families of Alzheimer patients can take free, interactive online classes to learn more about dementia. Only this way, they will be able to know more and more about the illness that has actually affected the life of their loved one.

However, these days a number of courses and seminars are available for the Alzheimer’s families but it often becomes difficult to attend them personally. And therefore this new range of online courses has been developed by Dr. Amy D'Aprix, a gerontologist. These are easy to attend and are fee of cost.

As told by Dr. Amy to CTV’s Canada AM Thursday, “It’s done in segments of 5 to 15 minutes you don’t need a lot of time to get the skills that you can use right away”.
