Description

Dementia family caregivers face an overwhelming journey—without adequate support or resources.



Supporting someone with dementia is a complex, emotional, exhausting journey. Yet, dementia family caregivers face this challenge without the coordinated support, training, or resources needed to provide the best care possible.



But that’s beginning to change. On July 1st Medicare is launching a new, first-of-its-kind program called GUIDE—Guiding an Improved Dementia Experience—created to provide comprehensive, FREE support for dementia family caregivers.



Daughterhood has partnered with PocketRN, an approved Medicare provider for the GUIDE program and a nationwide organization offering families 24/7 access to nurses—right from their pocket.



My guest today is Jenna Morgenstern-Gaines, the CEO and co-founder of PocketRN. In our conversation, Jenna will share more details about the GUIDE program and its comprehensive benefits, including ongoing caregiver support, education and training, access to respite care, how to enroll, everything you need to know to access the program.
