My mother is 76 and was recently diagnosed with AD. My grandmother also had the disease so we are familiar with it. My mom's doctor recommending contacting Benedum Geriatric Center for next steps and further care. She is still living at home with my step-father, but his health issues may limit how much he can help in the near future. Does anyone have experience with Benedum?
