Hello Alzheimer's host Karla Hult talks with Dr. Robyn Birkeland, a study interventionist and coach at the University of Minnesota's Families and Long-Term Care Projects team.

The conversation covers quite the spectrum of what happens to nearly all families during the dementia journey: From contending with communication challenges, to navigating local versus out-of-town logistics, to dealing with a history of complicated family dynamics. 

Most importantly, listeners will learn strategies and perspectives that will help them cope and find peace within their family and throughout the dementia journey.
