Pats Gameplan slogan

Pat's Gameplan: "Empowering Caregivers, Embracing Memories," Pat's Gameplan stands as a beacon of hope and strength, emphasizing that every memory is worth cherishing and every caregiver is worth celebrating. In the challenging journey of caring for patients with Alzheimer's and dementia, caregivers play an invaluable role, serving as the frontline defenders against the complexities and heartbreak these conditions can bring. "Pat's Gameplan" recognizes the often-overlooked heroes in this battle: the caregivers. Through its "Caring for Caregivers" initiative, Pat's Gameplan seeks to uplift and empower these devoted individuals, offering them the resources, support, and recognition they truly deserve. After all, while caregivers are tirelessly preserving the memories of their loved ones, it's essential that someone is there to care for them in return.
