Our fourth annual Elder Care Symposium is focused on hot topics in the field of aging and elder care. We will look at new ways to diagnose dementia much sooner, how artificial intelligence is being used in health care, and the ethics of AI being used in this way, ways the montessori approach can be used to engage seniors with dementia in a more purposeful way, how to start conversations that lead to meaningful end-of-life planning, and much more.
