Summary
All Home Care Matters is honored to have the privilege to welcome Craig Fowler to the show. If you are caring for a loved one with dementia or Alzheimer's then this interview will be full of in-depth information on an exciting platform that Craig has developed to help families and their loved ones with dementia stay stimulated and engaged.
Craig Fowler is the founder and CEO of Joygage, an engagement on-demand subscription service designed and developed to improve the quality of life of persons living with Alzheimer’s and dementia and provide respite for their care partners.
He was guided and inspired by his caregiving journey supporting his father who was the primary caregiver for his mother who lived with early onset dementia for more than ten years. He created Joygage to serve the Alzheimer's and dementia community by creating a service that focuses on improving quality of life, daily happiness, and dignity of persons living with Alzheimer's and dementia instead of trying to "cure" or “fix” them.
Aside from Joygage, he's also currently serving as a board member of the Dementia Action Alliance.
