Discussing Dementia: The Ethics of Dementia

People who care for loved ones with dementia or Alzheimer’s disease often face difficult decisions.

Linda Bliss and Chera Inhat from Kemper House – a care facility that specializes in Alzheimer’s disease and dementia – talk about the ethical quandaries that family members may face while caring for a loved one with dementia. They discuss balancing autonomy with the best interests of people who have dementia.
