International Caregivers Association (ICA): The Crisis and Future of Dementia Care | Episode 67

In this episode, we talk with the International Caregivers Association (ICA) about dementia. It is a seven-way conversation with basically the entire team: Dr. Ethelle Lord, Dr. Jennifer Stelter, Dr. Andrew Harrison, Ryan Stoffko, Bill Pemberton, and Pad.

You will learn about what it is, potential risks and causes, the various types (e.g. Alzheimer's, frontotemporal dementia, vascular dementia, etc.), detection, symptoms, prevention, and the good, bad, and future of dementia care, along with the ICA's revolutionary new systems-based approach.

We discuss the use of various tools such as: sleep, exercise / movement, nutrition, supplements, drugs, aromatherapy, music & sound, color, VR/AR, AI, psychedelics, communication, coaching, teamwork, and more.

Dementia affects 55+ million people worldwide, over 6.7 million people in the U.S alone, and these numbers are rapidly rising. The odds of you or a loved one developing some form of dementia is frighteningly high. Listen in to help save yourself and the ones you love. Step inside the shoes of those with dementia, as well as the family, caregivers, and the experts being interviewed today. This is an uncensored glimpse into the world of dementia and how to navigate it.
