Wednesday, February 28: Dr. Mara was interviewed by Marsha Joiner and You Can Hear The Podcas HERE
The job of advocating for a loved one who is immersed in the healthcare system or in long-term care is a necessary one. Without loving advocates, those who cannot speak for themselves, especially older adults, often suffer the consequences of ageism and ableism, leading to a quality of life that is less than ideal and, even, ending of the life of someone who still has more stories to tell. Advocacy is love and Dr. Mara discussed with Marsha Joiner her advocacy experiences, her recommendations based on these experiences, and more.
