IPCC Podcast: Mindful Pathways-Enhancing Dementia Care Through Person-Centered Practices
 |
The Institute for Person-Centered Care at St. Ambrose University is challenging the status quo of health and wellness in our communities. Join us as we delve into cutting edge strategies to tackle health and wellness challenges through innovation and a person-centered perspective. Whether you are a health and human service practitioner, or community member, our discussions offer valuable insights tailored to your interests and needs. Tune in and be part of the transformative discussions where person-centered care comes alive!
Join us for an insightful discussion with Marion Kyner, MSN, APRN, PMHCNS-BC, CDP and Joanna Fix, PhD, as they share strategies from expert knowledge and lived experiences for healthcare providers, individuals living with dementia, and the greater community to better navigate the journey of living alongside and caring for those experiencing brain changes.

- Advocate for person-centered care for individuals living with dementia, highlighting its benefits and systemic changes that prioritize the well-being, dignity, and individuality in healthcare and community settings.
Statement of Need and Purpose
Mounting evidence consistently demonstrates that integrating person-centered care approaches into health and human services leads to heightened satisfaction among both patients and providers, alongside improvements in quality and safety outcomes.
