As the disease progresses, behavior often becomes the primary way people with the disease communicate their needs. Learn why people with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia experience behavior changes, what those behaviors mean, and how to cope when behaviors are challenging.

Improve the lives of people in New Jersey who are affected by Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias.
About us
For over 35 years, we have been here for our local communities, providing care and support for families impacted by Alzheimer’s disease. Five years ago, we changed our name from Alzheimer’s Association, Greater New Jersey Chapter to Alzheimer’s New Jersey® to maintain our vital local focus as an independent New Jersey not for profit organization. Our Board made the difficult decision to disaffiliate from the Alzheimer’s Association in response to the Association’s decision to merge all independent Chapters into a single national corporation – ending local governance. We knew then what we know now – New Jersey’s 600,000 people affected by Alzheimer’s need an organization completely dedicated to them. Our name – Alzheimer’s New Jersey® – reflects this strong commitment. You can be assured that 100% of our donors’ generosity and the time and energy of our volunteers and staff are dedicated to our New Jersey mission. If you need support and assistance, please call our Helpline at 888-280-6055.

The decision to place a loved one with dementia in a residential care facility can be difficult, confusing, and fraught with understandable emotion. There are many issues to consider. Is there a "right" time for residential care placement? What are the different terms used to describe residential care settings? Is specialized memory care needed? What questions should be asked when evaluating a particular care option? This program is intended to assist and guide caregivers through the process of considering residential care placement for a loved one with dementia and to help caregivers make an informed decision. The importance of planning ahead will also be discussed.
