For Families Facing Dementia

At the Deanna and Sidney Wolk Center for Memory Health, we offer outpatient palliative care as part of our whole-person approach for people with dementia and their families. Our palliative care specialist works with patients and families to provide anticipatory guidance and to help define their quality-of-life and medical care goals.

Our home-based palliative care program is designed to fill a critical gap in the care of patients with chronic illness who want to prevent frequent hospitalizations and enjoy a better quality of life.
