Monday, March 29th, 2010

You are here because you are one of the Coachella Valley’s 15,000 to 18,000 family caregivers. There are 12,000 Alzheimer’s victims in our community and ALZ Life Matters is here to assist you with your challenges.

Have you ever wondered who takes care of the caregiver?

We do.

My life became a tsunami when I was thrust into the roll of my Mom’s full-time caregiver. As a life long learner, I needed to know more. After extensive investigation and over 500 hours of off and online research, ALZ Life Matters was created.

ALZ Life Matters is a professional services provider offering specialized training, tools, support and solutions for those who care for sufferers of Alzheimer’s, Dementia and Memory Loss. We’re dedicated to caring for the caregiver. We’re not medical professionals or clinicians.

We are experienced, compassionate professionals who will provide you with a new sense of calm, peace of mind and the necessary tools and information to carry forward.

We’ll also show you now to save lots of time and money, too as you sort through the mountain of information and physical and emotional upheaval that will continually challenge your former “normal life.” There are a multitude of do’s and don’ts to discover to improve the quality of your life.

If you’re confused, frustrated and wondering where to go, or how to begin your caregiver’s role, we‘re certain we can assist you. We know exactly what you are attempting to juggle while meeting the countless demands on your life and time and all at once.

Let ALZ Life Matters assist you with your journey, because your life matters, too.
