The doctor gave you a diagnosis. Who gave you a plan?
A diagnosis explains the condition. It rarely tells a family what to do when daily life starts changing. I help families understand what is happening and make a plan that fits the person they love.
A nurse practitioner who has seen every setting your loved one may face.
Hi, and welcome.
I’m Marjorie, and I started this company because there is a real gap between the information that exists about dementia and knowing what to do with it. That translation is where I come in, and it’s where things change.
I’ve spent more than a decade in geriatrics, most of it in rehab. I have been the provider in the room when the hardest decisions get made.
I’ve walked this road as a family member and as a professional. Both matter.
Every one of these questions has an answer.
Maine Dementia Partners is who you call. Marjorie Hunt, NP, an Adult-Gerontological Nurse Practitioner with over a decade of dementia care experience, walks alongside families through the medical, behavioral, and end-of-life decisions that no one prepares you for. You don’t have to figure it out alone.
The facility keeps calling and saying my mother is getting aggressive when they redirect her. I'm not sure what that means.
My father keeps getting sent to the ER from his Memory care facility. It seems to be for small things, but I know these transfers are really hard on him. Is there any way we don't have to do this?
My brother is in memory care and seems withdrawn. He doesn't smile or enjoy visits, and he declines to go out with me. What can I do? Is this how it will be?
My mother cries when she calls me and asks me to come home. The facility is upset because she keeps trying to help other residents and staff with their work. She thinks she works at the facility, and she enjoys housework. What can I do?
I care for my husband with dementia, and it has been going well, but recently things have been different. He becomes angry and frustrated quickly. What can I do?
I don't live in Maine, but my loved one does. Can someone who is there help me with all that I have to manage for their care and well being?
