Remain Known: A Dementia & Memory Care Companion | Printable & Fillable PDF

Dementia changes so much. It should not erase the person behind the diagnosis.

Remain Known is a fillable, printable, living reference for dementia and memory care. Type directly into the PDF or print it and write by hand. Fill in what matters now, come back as needs change, and update what you learn along the way.

It holds the information that often isn't found in a medical chart: how this person communicates, familiar routines, what comforts them, what causes distress, changing independence, wandering risks, personal care, nighttime changes, music, relationships, and the things that help them still feel like themselves.

It also touches on the harder parts, including grieving someone who is still here, recognizing meaningful changes, knowing when more support may be needed, and understanding that sometimes meeting someone in their reality is kinder than continually correcting them.

Pairs well with: The Family Care Companion for medical and essential information, the Health Tracking Companion for ongoing health changes, and the Settling In Companion when moving into assisted living or memory care.

As a nurse with more than 30 years of experience in long-term care and assisted living. I created this around the things I've seen people and families actually need, without duplicating the paperwork they already have.

The goal is not only to manage dementia. The goal is to help the person remain known.
