What is Ripples?
Ripples is a tool for caregivers that explores the many faces and experiences of caregivers within a care team. It helps you identify the roles in a care team and helps family members, friends and co-workers learn how to better support themselves and those around them.
About Ripples
Ripples is brought to you by Gordie Howe CARES in association with J5 Design, with advisory input from members of the Hotchkiss Brain Institute. It is created by reaching out into the dementia caregiver community and collecting stories and learnings from those who have experienced the caregiving journey.
