Meet Janel
Founder of Dementia Haven. Dementia Advocate. Mom. Friend. Daughter.
Hi there! I am a Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist with a focus as a Dementia Care Practitioner. For the past 10 years, I’ve worked in memory care communities, gaining valuable insight into the complexities of dementia and its impact.
My primary goal is to deepen my understanding of dementia and its different forms, while educating others about effective approaches, communication strategies, warning signs, and more.
I aim to be a valuable resource for individuals who receive a dementia diagnosis and are left to navigate its meaning, next steps, and the challenges that come with it.
I want to support those who are asking, “Dementia? Now what?”
