Therapy Groups
ATTENDING THE CAREGIVERS
The welfare of the patient with Alzheimer’s disease depends on the welfare of their caregivers. These are people under great emotional pressure who often suffer from psychological and health problems such as depression, anxiety and feelings of overburden.
Our therapy group programme allows us to investigate ways of improving their quality of life as they share their experiences and emotions in a group setting and by teaching them to care for their loved ones and for themselves.
“Behind every patient there is a caregiver who has to learn to face the disease”
