He is a certified dementia care consultant, and host of the Dementia Empowered podcast. Patrick has lived experience with a family member who has Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD), so he knows firsthand what dementia caregivers face. Here are some highlights from this episode: Patrick endorses trying care solutions before going straight to legal solutions which might escalate problems and family dynamics. The biggest challenges for dementia caregivers that Patrick sees are financial issues, forming a care team, and complicated or discordant family dynamics.Patrick advocates for caregivers to be paid in certain situations, depending on estate taxes and the financial burden on the caregivers. Recording keeping is vitally important; Patrick recommends keeping a paper trail of transactions and healthcare decisions. Listen to the Dementia Empowered Podcast here.
