Creating Confidence in Dementia Care

Dementia care requires more than clinical expertise, it requires understanding, patience, and the right approach. In this episode of Home Health Revealed, we sit down with Jessica Iorio, VP of Hospice Operations, and Lauren Adams, Dementia Care Coordinator for the LTM Group, to discuss how specialized dementia education is transforming care for patients, families, and clinicians alike. From recognizing subtle signs of decline to improving communication techniques and supporting caregivers through every stage of the journey, Jessica and Lauren share practical insights on what it takes to provide compassionate, person-centered dementia care. They also explore how training programs like Dementia Live help caregivers see the world through the eyes of those living with dementia, leading to better outcomes and more meaningful connections. Tune in to learn why creating confidence in dementia care is essential as more families and healthcare providers navigate the growing impact of dementia across the continuum of care.
