Protect Yourself!
Knowing that you have in place a blanket of protection for you and your loved one can lead to an intense feeling of security, calm, and even bliss, perhaps. There is nothing that does more for the reduction of stress in your life than knowing you have the right plans and documentation in place, so that if a storm should hit in your and your loved one’s life, you already have the systems you need at the ready, to protect you from harm.
Giving Yourself Peace of Mind!
It is our hope that NAN gives you some peace of mind about your role as a family caregiver, by proving the information and tools you need to find a little corner of calm for yourself.
Time to Get Organized!
The hot “dog days” of summer is a good time to relax, find a little breathing room, and enjoy the slower the pace of activities. It can also be a perfect time for some organizing.
Time to Get Organized!
It’s the beginning of the new year, and it’s never too early to begin to get organized for the months to follow. After all, it’s a little cooler, the holidays are behind us, and spring, the time of rejuvenation, is just around the corner. For many people, perhaps yourself included, this is a time for general organizing of the household: Getting rid of clothes and other items that are no longer needed, re-organizing the kitchen, and in general trying to simplify your life.

Over the past six months we have learned a lot from you about how to improve our NAN offerings and services to meet your needs.
