Dementia with DementiaDarling, VoiceLove and Loop Village
In this episode, we discussed dementia and brain health as important aspects of aging and health. We heard from DementiaDarling Carrie Aalberts, an advocate in the dementia landscape, which addresses the needs of 1 in 3 older adults (somewhere between seven and 11 million).
Gabriela Pelin of VoiceLove shared about their “voice communications enabler” for dementia patients in ICU, now in pilot programs at both Vanderbilt and Texas A&M Longevity Center.
We also heard from Margo Merrick of LOOP Village, an online content engagement platform handling 120 events per month.
Margot was excited to be collaborating with Carrie Aalberts aka DementiaDarling, Adria Thompson of Be Light Care and Embodied Labs for an event that took place on (and thus drew new members to) Loop Village. It also fulfilled a California state Cal Grows requirement to deliver a Through Their Eyes Compassionate Care dementia webinar for Embodied Labs on August 20th 2024. ALL of these participants are part of the AgeTech Collaborative from AARP. Over 1,000 people attended.
