    The Ohio Council for Cognitive Health created Quick Tips to be your first stop for information to solve some of the most common caregiving challenges related to dementia. Each Quick Tip provide strategies that care partners can apply and modify for their specific situation. Although we recognize that there is no “one size fits all” approach to dementia care, there are some tried and true tools that we hope you will find helpful. Quick Tips are a great place to start — download a handout, watch a video, or read more on our website — whatever format fits best for you.
