VA Website for Geriatrics & Extended Care

Found this link today and it's very helpful if you have a Veteran who has memory loss. It also has some educational videos for caregivers. I read a report by the NIH that Veterans exposed to Agent Orange have a 50% more chance of having Alzheimer's or Dementia. Although it's not on the presumptive list, you can file a claim. Look for a Veteran Service Officer in your County for assistance. This website lists many other non VA related resources. You can also find a Social Worker in your area to assist.
