The Alzheimer's Association offers a Contact Center that is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week to provide information and referral. Anyone with questions or concerns about memory problems, dementia, or Alzheimer's disease can call them at 800.272.3900.

The Contact Center is staffed with professionals who understand the disease and its impact. They connect callers to information about the disease, treatments, care strategies, and linkages to community programs.

For more in-depth support, they offer confidential care consultation. Their master's level clinicians provide decision-making support, crisis assistance, and education regarding a number of issues and concerns faced by people with dementia and their families.

If you need assistance in Spanish or another language, they can provide access to translation services for as many as 140 languages and dialects.

Note: The Contact Center staff does not perform diagnosis. They provide information, education, support, and referral. Please contact a physician for a diagnosis.
