For over 40 years, Dr. Graddy-Dansby, M.D., has focused her medical practice on working with the elderly. She was initially inspired by her relationship with her grandfather, and the feeling that seniors were often “invisible” within the community. In this episode, Lynn discusses Dr. Graddy-Dansby’s experiences with advocating for equitable medical care and access for seniors, the importance of training new physicians to focus on geriatric medicine, and how the caregiving landscape will drastically change as our community ages.
Listen in to hear helpful tips on supporting primary caregivers and how we need to shift our perceptions of care for the future.
