Dignify Dementia - Keeping You Connected
The Mavericks are blessed to sit down with Dr. Christina Vaughan, Physician Lead at UCHealth Anshutz Outpatient Palliative Care Clinic, and Jennifer Desserich, Executive Director, Dignify Dementia.
Dignify Dementia started in 2022, to honor Ms. Desserich's dad, who was diagnosed with Dementia with Lewy Bodies and Parkinsonism in 2018. Ms. Desserich's and her mother have been the most active part of his caregiving community and we do all that we can to help him to stay safely in our family home. They plan to support him at home for as long as we possibly can, but that carries a great deal of patience and responsibility, which are not always easy to hold on to when you're a care partner.
