Practical Tips for Caregivers & Patient Advocates

Episodes 10 and 11 contain a chock full of practical tips! I’m thrilled to be joined by Laurette Foggini, as she draws on her extensive experience on the administrative side of caregiving and patient advocacy, combined with her subsequent (and current) journey with her mom.

Part 1 explores topics such as developing care plans, caregiving from a distance, transitioning to being physically present, importance of the Power of Attorney (why, and when it’s not enough), and more!

Part 2 explores topics such as addressing sibling responsibilities, effects of prognosis and changes to it, travel for self-care, decisions about home care and hospice, acceptance and adapting, sons stepping into these care roles, senior fitness and more!

We hope you find this conversation interesting and informative!
