Over the span of two decades author, columnist and speaker Carol Bradley Bursack cared for a neighbor and six elderly family members. Because of this experience, Bradley Bursack created a portable support group, the book “Minding Our Elders: Caregivers Share Their Personal Stories.” Her sites, www.mindingourelders.com and www.mindingoureldersblogs

There are so many good Web sites that have wonderful products, so the Web is a good place to start, even if you plan on shopping at your local medical supply store. You can get ideas about what is already available. Two good sites, though there are many others, are alzstore.com and independentliving.com.

Thank you Carol. I knew about independentliving.com, but I will check out alzstore.com. I'm a family medicine doc. My parents are in their late 70's & doing ok so far. But every day I see patients with dementia and patients who care for their loved ones with dementia. I'm working with a local inventor to see if we can create/ fill a need in our community regarding what caregivers or patients with dementia need. Any suggestions?
