The Better Way:

A More Compassionate Approach to Elder Care

Better Elder Care: Painting Masterpieces

At Care Haven, we’re on a mission to see that the older adults in our care receive the help they need when they need it, with the kindness, dignity and respect they deserve. We believe everyone involved in elder care should strive to meet the same standard.

However, sometimes it’s difficult to determine precisely what a loved one needs (particularly with dementia) and how to get it for them. Our team rises to the challenge every day. In this Resources section, we offer the tips we’ve found most helpful. (Most are useful in the care of any senior, whether or not they have memory issues.) We also share advice on self-care, which we believe is crucial for anyone assuming the critical role of caregiver.

If you’re new to caregiving, we suggest you start with Finding Help for Caregivers: Your First 10 Steps. Among other things, it features a list of invaluable online resources to guide you on your journey.
