Caregiving Boot Camp: Podcast with Zaldy Tan
“Diagnose and adios.” That’s the sad phrase that I’ve heard quoted more than once, representing caregivers’ sentiment of what it’s like to be told by a clinician that your loved one has dementia. This week we talked with Zaldy Tan, Geriatrician and Director of the Memory and Aging program at Cedars Sinai in Los Angeles. We cover many topics, including dissemination of the bootcamp to Spanish-speaking caregivers, converting to video boot camp during COVID, and ways you can partner with them to create your own boot camp.
