Diagnosed with Dementia? Compassion & Choices Provides New Online Tools

Prepare for a dementia appointment with the Compassion & Choices Dementia Diagnosis Decoder

September 22, 2020

These new online tools from Compassion & Choices show you how to implement a “Dementia Healthcare Directive,” since the usual Healthcare Directive does not apply to mental deterioration.

At Compassion & Choices, we’ve designed two interactive, web-based tools that will help people take control of their care following diagnosis: the Dementia Decoder and the Dementia Values & Priorities Tool. Because we’re committed to helping people document their values and priorities while they are mentally capable so that their loved ones can navigate treatment and avoid prolonged suffering.

Kim Callinan, President and CEO, Compassion & Choices

Call Avenidas Care Partners at (650) 289-5438 with your questions or contact Compassion & Choices.
