Join Michael Greenlee and Hannah Vale as they tackle a crucial topic impacting millions of families: Memory Care. Hannah is back after battling the flu (tequila vs. chamomile, the debate continues!), and ready to dive into the booming memory care market. Is it just a market, or an opportunity to truly serve people?
Key Discussion Points:
The Growing Memory Care Market: The US memory care market was valued at $5.82 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach over $11 billion by 2033. The implications of this growth are a on-going discussion.
Staggering Statistics: Over 40% of individuals above the age of 65 in the US live with some form of memory impairment. Hannah and Mike unpack the numbers and what they mean for families.
The Importance of Home: While assisted living facilities are on the rise, many individuals prefer to remain in the comfort of their own homes. What are the benefits and challenges of aging in place?
Caregiver Burnout: The demands of caring for someone with memory impairment can lead to caregiver burnout. What resources are available, and how can we better support caregivers?
"Diabetes 3": A New Perspective?: Kandice and the hosts explore the potential link between diet, glucose levels, and Alzheimer's, prompting the question: Should Alzheimer's be viewed as "Diabetes 3" in the US?
