Meet Our President And Owner, Cheryl
Our company is led by Cheryl Richmond. Owner and president of Dementia Support Specialist. She brings more than 25 years of healthcare industry experience to the table.
Cheryl attended Cardinal Stritch University and majored in Nursing and Sociology, but found herself naturally inclined to activities. To prepare for a career as an activity director, she took up further studies in Littleton, Colorado.
After successfully managing various nursing homes and assisted living facilities, Cheryl went on to offer consultations and teach other activity professionals. Subsequently, she moved on to a successful career as an assisted living administrator.
Cheryl remains dedicated and passionate about providing care to people living with the symptoms with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. Being a resident advocate since the beginning, Cheryl demands the same level of commitment from her team.
Constantly finding out more ways to better serve those living with this horrid disease, Cheryl is grateful for the opportunity to help others live the best life possible.

What Our Families Are Saying
"We appreciate everything you've done."
- The Thomas Family
"Thank you so much for being a wonderful caregiver. He needed a special person to him when his memory was failing but was not ready for a more restrictive environment. You were there to help him while letting him retain his dignity. Not always an easy person to work with, you were the only person he would allow into his home and his routine, to truly work with him. That alone is an amazing testament to your kindness, thoughtfulness, and special caregiving skills. Thanks again."
