Your Dementia GPS
Wouldn’t it be nice to know that you could simply pick up the phone and get expert advice regarding your loved one’s care? Now you can with Your Dementia GPS, our call-in memory care program.

Why Subscribe to a Call-in Service?
Have your Individual Needs Addressed
Blogs and support groups talk in generalities. When you subscribe to our call-in service, LAUREN will know all about your personal circumstances and will be available to walk you through any emerging concern.
Discern the Changes
On a day-to-day basis, needs, circumstances, extent of care, etc. can change. We never want to overreact and cause undue stress to our loved one, but underestimating can also be detrimental. Having LAUREN as a resource to help you navigate through these changes is essential. She knows how to prevent problems; and she also knows how to help your loved one thrive within the given circumstances. A call may be all it takes to understand the options.
You are not Alone
LAUREN can be your advocate, care manager, adviser, counselor to the many questions or concerns that pop up on a daily basis. Wouldn’t it be nice to know that you can just pick up the phone and know how to proceed through the next stage?
