So like as an example, in New York State, if someone has no healthcare proxy that they’ve designated, there is a legal structure by which we can assign a surrogate, whereas other states don’t have that same structure.

Emmy: Because if you’ve got other ways to get things delivered or you have good public transportation or you have a lot of family around, that’s a very different kind of calculus than if you live on your ranch and there’s no way to otherwise get to town, and there’s nobody else around. Is this our role? Emmy: Yeah.

And I think one key part is educating the field, not just my fellow cardiologists, but also primary care doctors, geriatricians, that there’s this heart failure syndrome that is kind of sneaky, and it’s kind of difficult to diagnose any. Because you’re treating multimorbidity.

I can remember two instances of storytelling in training or in education, I guess. There’s obviously a lot of flaws in the healthcare system.

So it’s, you know, nursing homes are part of the healthcare sector, but they’re also part of the social care sector in the same building. But some of these things are addressable potentially through education. If you have 100 beds in the building, 20 of them today might be rehabbed people who are there. Alex 36:24 Yeah.

How can we take our healthcare system, and really break it, and do it better for older adults who may not fit within, or may not have the conveniences of going into the clinic, or going to the hospital, all these things that we think about.
