You cannot pour from an empty cup.
If you are reading this, you are probably the one holding everything together. You are the one who woke up last night to check on them. The one who rescheduled your own appointments again. The one who feels guilty every time you need a moment to yourself.
Alice’s Clubhouse was built for your loved one and it was also built for you.
Burnout Is Not Weakness. It Is Physics.
Dementia caregiving is one of the most demanding long-term experiences a person can go through. The physical demands are real. The emotional demands are constant. And the isolation, the feeling that no one fully understands what you are managing, can be one of the hardest parts. Caregiver burnout is not a personal failure. It is what happens when someone gives more than they can sustain without support. And it matters, not just for you, but for the person you are caring for. A burned-out caregiver cannot provide the care they want to give.
What Alice’s Clubhouse Gives You Back
Hours That Are Yours.
When your loved one is at Alice’s Clubhouse, you have time. Not time to worry about what is happening, but time to actually use. To work. To sleep. To see a friend. To remember who you are outside of this role. For many caregivers, this is the first real break they have had in months or years. That is not a small thing.
Peace of Mind, Not Just Absence.
The difference between leaving your loved one somewhere and truly trusting the place they are in is enormous. At Alice’s Clubhouse, our staff knows your loved one: their personality, their preferences, their patterns. The clinical oversight is real. The ratio is 1:6 or better. You will not spend the day watching the clock.
A Community That Gets It.
Many caregivers find that Alice’s Clubhouse becomes a resource not just for their loved one, but for themselves. Whether it is connecting with our staff or other families who understand what this journey is like through conversation, referrals, or simply the recognition that you are not alone, it is all part of what the Alice’s Clubhouse community offers. Over time, many families find that they become a part of our family, building lasting connections and finding support beyond the care their loved one receives.
A Day for Them. A Day for You.
The families who benefit most from Alice’s Clubhouse are often not in a crisis. They are managing, but feel it getting harder. If that sounds familiar, a Discovery Day is a low-stakes way to see what support could look like before you need it urgently.
Early enrollment makes the most difference. Joining Alice’s Clubhouse when your loved one is in the earlier stages gives them more time to build connections, settle into routine, and benefit from the clinical programming. Coming before the crisis is not premature. It is the right time.
