For Caregivers
Huntington’s disease doesn't just affect people with HD—it affects those who live with and care for them as well. Because HD is a degenerative disease, the demands of caregiving can feel overwhelming.
As you do this important work, it’s important to remember to take time to care for yourself too. Taking care of yourself will help you better care for your loved one.
Self-care activities include:
- Maintaining a healthy sleep schedule
- Eating well
- Exercising
- Taking time to do something nice for yourself daily—even if it’s just having a cup of tea
- Doing something you enjoy
- Keeping in touch with friends
- Staying in touch with yourself and how you feel—don't dismiss your feelings
Caring for a loved one with HD chorea
As your loved one’s HD chorea progresses, it will become more and more difficult for him or her to complete activities of daily living unassisted. At each stage, you, other family members, and your healthcare providers should have active discussions about how much supervision is necessary, and what modifications are most appropriate and helpful.
Some ways that you can help your loved one include:

- Modify the home as needed and when possible, to reduce fall risks and increase independence—for instance, by installing grab bars in the shower and next to the toilet and handrails in hallways
- Try to follow a consistent daily routine—this can help with memory difficulties and reduce stress
- Organize the home in a way that makes sense to your loved one, especially as he/she may begin to struggle with memory difficulties
- Encourage your loved one to talk with their healthcare provider about treatment options that may help control their HD chorea
