Caregiver tip to keep people with Alzheimer’s active

People with Alzheimer’s disease need to stay active and do things they enjoy, but may have trouble deciding what to do each day.

Doing physical activity like walking together can help both the person and the caregiver to manage stress and stay healthy.
