Episode 72: Handling Conflicts Between Residents in Memory Units, Importance of Early Dementia Diagnosis, and Bruce Wills' FTD announcement

In Episode 72, I tackle 3 topics that were not lengthy enough for their own podcast. Those topics include what to do when people who live in Memory Care Units have conflicts with each other; the importance of getting an early dementia diagnosis so that you can receive one of the new drugs (if you meet the criteria); and Bruce Willis’ FTD diagnosis. His family is very brave sharing this information.

I also recorded this podcast outdoors as an experiment. Open to feedback (yes, no, don't do this again, please have horses neighing in the background).
