Dementia doesn’t occur in isolation. Patients often contend with other health conditions that compound their care needs. For caregivers, this means balancing dementia-specific strategies with broader health management, all while adapting to unpredictable behavioral changes.
Families, too, play a vital role in the caregiving process, but they often face overwhelming challenges without adequate guidance. Many families express feelings of guilt, helplessness, and stress as they struggle to support their loved ones. A lack of resources can leave families feeling isolated and unsure of how to provide effective care.
Nevvon is approaching this with specialized training programs that equip caregivers and families with the skills and knowledge they need to navigate complex situations confidently.
Training for Dementia and Comorbidities
Nevvon’s dementia training focuses on more than just managing memory loss. It incorporates strategies to address common comorbidities, helping caregivers understand the interplay between dementia and other health issues. Caregivers are trained in:
Behavioral management for dementia-related symptoms.
Health monitoring and support for conditions like diabetes or hypertension.
Communication strategies to foster understanding and trust with patients.
Empowering Families with Resources
Families often serve as the primary support system for individuals with dementia. Nevvon can extend its resources to families, providing educational tools that help them:
Recognize and respond to dementia-related behaviors.
Understand the medical and emotional aspects of comorbidities.
Collaborate effectively with professional caregivers to ensure continuity of care.
Even with training and preparation, caregiving for individuals with dementia can be unpredictable and challenging. PocketRN’s innovative platform bridges the gap by offering families and caregivers access to real-time clinical support from registered nurses, 24/7.
Key benefits of PocketRN’s approach include:

Support for Families
PocketRN isn’t just for caregivers; families also benefit from this platform, gaining reassurance and actionable advice to better support their loved ones. This holistic approach reduces stress and helps families feel less isolated in their caregiving journey.

By combining specialized training with round-the-clock clinical support, they empower caregivers and families to provide high-quality care while keeping individuals with dementia in their most familiar and comforting environment—their homes.
