This episode is presented by the American Case Management Association. Join our host, Deb McElroy, along with featured guests from the Hartford HealthCare Center for Healthy Aging, Wendy Martinson and Michelle Wyman. This episode discusses Caregiver Coaching, an approach to case management for persons with dementia. This approach won the most innovative poster presentation at the 2018 National ACMA conference.

The conversation walks through the initial signs and symptoms of dementia, ways to increase the quality of life for people with dementia, options for long term case management, and resources available for the caregiver of the person with dementia.

It is a valuable resource for a caregiver and family and provides helpful information to support caregivers in their vital work.
