My favorite line from Emily’s paper: “Geriatric assent has not been widely adopted in clinical care, but bioethicists should advocate for this, as adoption of partial-involvement strategies can prolong the period in which individuals are (appropriately) engaged in decisions about their health care.” I’m not going to talk about finances.

I think this is a really difficult topic to talk about with patients.

I think part of this does stem from a clinical experience and also some of the theoretical models that have evolved around serious illness, you know, to think specifically about dementia. And so trying to think a little bit more about what could be driving some of those alterations in the trajectory for all kinds of serious illness.
