Mayo has a 3-week program, held several times a year at all Mayo campuses ( I think!) called HABIT that should be imperative for anyone with family members who have MCI! My husband is not a Mayo patient but was welcomed into the program and though he grumbled at first about having to do 50 hours of classes, he agrees it has been the best thing ever!
Sessions are both together with caregivers and separated into patient sessions and caregiver sessions. Excellent information on everything to expect, promising research, financial planning, nutrition, ways to maintain a semblance of independence and organization, and even a year's subscription to Brain HQ for brain games that help different functions of the brain. My husband is in the early stages of AD, has been taking Kisunla infusions for 6 months, and we utilize what we learned at HABIT constantly. In addition there's a monthly alumni "reunion" that I figured I'd have to drag him to, but lo and behold... he looks forward to it and catching up with his fellow patients and we both enjoy the information updates and mingling with folks going thru the same things!
And PS... Medicare apparently covers the whole thing except for about $650 that is worth every penny!
