☀️ June brings the longest days of the year – and for individuals living with Alzheimer's, that extra light can make a meaningful difference.
Alzheimer's can disrupt the body's internal clock, affecting sleep, mood, and daily patterns. Thoughtfully designed environments can help support healthier rhythms, and summer offers some natural advantages.
