Publication Date: April/May/June 1999

Although there is currently no cure for Alzheimer's, products are available to help make life easier for people with this disease and to assist those who contribute to their care. Products designed to help with tasks such as bathing, mobility, and monitoring can be purchased from a variety of mail order catalogs as well as from local home health suppliers and even retail stores. This article discusses a few of those products.
