Save a few to your “Favorites,” and the next time you stop by The Residence at Boyertown—or call on your lunch break—you’ll have something bright and helpful to share.</p><p>1) Alzheimer’s Association (Instagram)</p><p>Short, hopeful posts about research milestones, caregiver encouragement, and ways to get involved—great for a 60-second recharge between tasks. Share a post with your parent, then ask what song, smell, or photo brings them comfort.</p><p>Follow: @alzassociation on Instagram</p><p>2) National Institute on Aging (YouTube)</p><p>Credible, plain-English videos on healthy aging topics—sleep, fall prevention, memory, and more. These clips are perfect to watch together and then try one tip that day (like a short balance exercise before dinner).</p><p>Watch: National Institute on Aging – YouTube</p><p>3) AARP (Instagram)</p><p>A lively mix of practical guidance and cultural moments for adults 50+. It’s upbeat without being fluffy—ideal for quick talking points that can turn into meaningful conversations (“Who inspired you at my age?”).</p><p>Follow: @aarp on Instagram</p><p>4) Teepa Snow / Positive Approach to Care (YouTube)</p><p>If dementia is part of your family’s story, Teepa Snow’s compassionate, step-by-step demonstrations are gold. Watch one technique—like approaching from the side or using hand-under-hand—and practice it during your next visit. The calmer results often speak for themselves.</p><p>Watch: Teepa Snow’s Positive Approach to Care – YouTube</p><p>5) DailyCaring (Facebook)</p><p>DailyCaring posts bite-size advice you can actually use tonight—conversation starters, safety checklists, gift ideas that don’t gather dust. It’s the friend who always has a practical link ready when you’re stuck.</p><p>Follow: DailyCaring on Facebook</p><p>6) Music &amp; Memory (YouTube)</p><p>Heart-warming stories of music reconnecting people living with dementia or other conditions. Use their ideas to build a short playlist for your parent: three songs from their teens, two from your childhood together. Bring headphones and press play—watch the mood lift.</p><p>Watch: Music &amp; Memory – YouTube</p><p>How to Make These Feeds Work for Your Family</p><p>Save, then act. Each week, save one post that suggests a small action (a 5-minute balance drill, a breathing exercise, a music prompt). Try it together during your next call or visit.</p><p>Build a “share ritual.” In Boyertown, we see families thrive when they make sharing quick: one post during afternoon coffee, one song after dinner. Consistency beats intensity.</p><p>Loop in our team. Bringing Mom to The Residence at Boyertown? Show a saved post to our associates. We’re happy to weave a tip into activities—whether that’s an easy stretch before Bingo or a Motown mini-playlist for a rainy afternoon.</p><p>If you’d like, our team can help you set up a “Favorites” folder on your phone so helpful posts are always at your fingertips.</p>"},"id":"5987d4ae-7016-4d8e-9e21-e3b8266da42b","isHidden":false,"type":"text_block"}]
