So at least in my oncology community, I really didn’t have anyone guiding or supporting or mentoring me. Eric: So now we’re getting this issue of do we have to change things for different diagnoses, different cancer?

As a springboard for this conversation we discuss new prognostic models developed to predict (simultaneously) mortality, disability, and mobility impairment ( Alex Lee first author, JAGS ) and mortality for people with dementia residing in the community ( James Deardorff first author, JAMA IM ). . Those have a very, very long time horizon.

You know, in other places, in most rural communities, the dead are laid out in their own beds, which is very often where they died. Whereas in cultures that practice cremation properly, it’s a public event full of ceremony and ritual and expectation. And the operative word here is just cremated or just buried. I won’t.

They had triple diagnoses, often life threatening illness, but also mental illness and usually some kind of addiction. And what’s important about this for your listeners is that we begin to see that dying is not just a medical event, and we need to stop treating it as if it were just that. Lingsheng 43:28 I did.

Alex: We’ve got a lot to talk about…what states are doing and cities are doing to support older adults in the community. But, what you need is a community-based game there. The long-term care is being actually provided in the community at a much higher rate than what the formal system provides. You go back home.

Next, we talk with James Deardorff about whether we can accurately predict nursing home level of care in community-dwelling older adults with dementia.
