Alzheimer’s is a disease that causes changes in areas of the brain that control memory and reasoning. Why the disease develops is not yet fully understood. At present, it has no cure. But proper care can help most people with Alzheimer’s live a comfortable life for many years. St. John Providence Health System offers assisted living and nursing homes that can help Alzheimer's sufferers and their families cope with the disease. We also offer support groups for Alzheimer's patients and their families.
