The Eskenazi Health Aging Brain Care program builds on the success of programs targeting Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. It focuses on treatments and strategies that help patients and caregivers enjoy an improved quality of life.
Established in 2008, this center combines research and clinical care, resulting in the rapid translation of research discoveries into clinical practice. Working closely with the patient’s primary care provider, the multidisciplinary care team – consisting of physicians, nurses, psychologists, care coordinator assistants and social workers – develops a personal treatment plan for each patient that includes medications as well as non-drug treatments to improve the quality of life for patients and caregivers.
