ECRI Now provides unique insights on pressing healthcare issues. In each episode, ECRI’s subject matter experts share their experience in relationship to the latest healthcare news. Topics range from ethical issues in healthcare, patient safety, infection control, healthcare IT and spend management across the continuum of care from health systems to non-acute care.
The idea that diagnosis is a single event that happens at a single point of time by a single healthcare provider is a common misconception—one that doesn’t account for the complex, multifaceted system of patients, family members, providers, and technologies. In this episode, Victor Lane Rose, Executive Director, of Aging and Ambulatory Care at ECRI, discusses diagnosis and describes why patient, family, and caregiver participation is especially important in diagnosing Alzheimer’s and other dementias.
