This week, Barbara is joined by Sara Kaye, Director of Family Services at OPICA. The first Adult Day Program and Counseling Center in Los Angeles, OPICA supports caretakers and patients in every phase of memory loss. They talk about how difficult it is for dementia sufferers to advocate for themselves, and how the Center offers its members a much-needed sense of purpose, structure, and community. They also discuss how geriatric healthcare was forced to evolve pre- and post-COVID, and how OPICA has created programs like OZ -- a virtual program with a monthly subscription for daily programming and activities.
