Expert, Ethical, and Affordable Dementia Care Navigation
Mary Caldwell established Aging Savvy to support individuals with dementia and their care partners. She witnessed firsthand the unnecessary suffering and stress experienced by many due to the lack of community support, overburdened healthcare system, and general lack of knowledge surrounding ethical and evidence-based dementia care.
Mary believes that every individual living with dementia deserves the highest standard of care possible. She recognizes that listening is crucial to achieving that objective, as each person and family has different goals, needs, and resources.
With a background in social work, a master's degree in gerontology, and 14 years of professional experience, Mary offers compassionate guidance based on evidence-based methods to help her clients navigate dementia and achieve balance to live well with this chronic disease.
Aging Savvy is dedicated to a holistic, highly ethical standard of dementia care that is collaborative, affordable, and personalized to individuals. Our primary goal is to help individuals untangle the many challenges of life with dementia and lead them to a more fulfilling life in mind, body, and spirit without risking valuable retirement resources.

What is a Gerontologist?
- Gerontologists study mental, physical, and social changes in aging and use that knowledge to help people live well and agencies serve clients better.
- We work in education and research or directly with those facing challenges in aging, like dementia or other chronic diseases.
- Gerontologists are not physicians; although some gerontologists have clinical experience working on care teams with physicians, nurses, and clinical social workers, we do not practice medicine.
