Best Dementia Support Groups in Tampa & Pasco County

Caregiver Support Groups

The first thing anyone suffering from any form of dementia needs to know is that they are not alone! There is a plethora of education resources and support groups available.

Most support groups work with caregivers affected by all types of dementia. Some of the places to turn:

• Byrd Institute- see their website for times, locations, and links (if virtual). https://www.griswoldcare.com/promo/pairing-you-with-caregivers-tampa/
• Alzheimer’s Association- the AA trains and supports caregiver groups across Tampa Bay. https://www.alz.org/flgulfcoast
• Dementia Spotlight Foundation- Gary Leblanc and Dementia Spotlight lead a couple of local in person groups while also hosting virtual groups at all times of the day (many attended by caregivers across the world). He also has support groups for the ones dealing with the dementia themselves so that they can share their issues with others that have already gone through what they are experiencing. https://dementiaspotlightfoundation.org/
• Dr Cate McCarty Dementia Coach – Cate now resides in Maryland but she worked in Tampa Bay for over 20 years. She has her PhD in social work and leads virtual groups and offers counseling. https://Catemccarty.com

Caring for a loved one with dementia can quickly become overwhelming—especially as symptoms progress and safety becomes a concern…even with the assistance from a caregiver support group. If you’re starting to notice changes in memory, behavior, or daily functioning, it may be time to get additional support at home.
