About LiveWell
LiveWell Dementia Specialists, formerly the Alzheimer’s Resource Center, opened in 1992 as a nonprofit focused exclusively on caring for individuals at all stages of Alzheimer’s disease and related dementia.
Today we are care providers, researchers and most of all, we are pioneers in dementia care, recognized as one of the most knowledgeable resources for the care of people living with Alzheimer’s disease in the nation. We understand the challenges that confront families on this difficult journey and we have developed effective models of care that are respectful, dignified and have compassion at their core.
