Caregiving Through Catastrophe - How caregivers can prepare for natural disasters
In this episode on the Living with Alzheimer's podcast, Christoph interviews Tina Sadarangani, ANP-C GNP-BC PhD RN, Assistant Professor at NYU School of Medicine and the Rory Meyers College of Nursing.
They discuss Tina’s research regarding natural disaster trends and its impact on caregivers for those living with dementia.
Tina shares her recommendations for creating an evacuation plan for the natural disasters most likely in their region as well as how to create an evacuation kit.
She also discusses ways to reduce agitation for people living with dementia during an evacuation. And she shares how CareMobi, a caregiving app her team has developed, can keep caregivers connected with family and medical providers during natural disasters.
