Having spent 20 years caring for elders with the most complex challenges, medical and behavioral, in my house calls practice; I have seen it all. I have seen elders swindled, delusional elders thinking spouse is an intruder, elders receiving 40 medications... but still suffering pain, and agitation. Yes, there are solutions for all of these difficult situations. As a Geriatrician, I address the whole person, including mood, pain, function, memory and judgement. This is all distilled in "Living in the Moment", an expert guidebook for ALL aspects of the dementia journey. How to decrease risk, to diagnose, which medications hurt, and help, staying independent, engaged, challenging behaviors, medical complications, when to move, where to get help, and choosing hospice. We are expanding our services on Dr Liz Geriatrics. The DLG Community provides two discussion "rooms" (one for eldercare professions and one for families and caregivers) provide lively discussion of challenging areas of care, diagnosis, medications, self care of the carer, finding resources.
