Caregivers, please talk to your doctor about getting the vaccinations you need. Also, make sure that the person with Alzheimer’s is also current on the following immunizations:
• Flu
• Pneumococcal Disease
• Tetanus and Diphtheria
• Shingles
• Measles, Mumps, and Rubella
Learn more about vaccinations for older adults in the AgePage Shots for Safety. And don’t forget to schedule updates for your own immunizations!
