Elder Law: Making Sure the Right People Can Protect and Care for Patients with Dementia
Join attorney Marc B. Hankin as he discusses how to use a durable power of attorney, an advance health care directive and a living trust when someone is diagnosed with dementia. He will discuss what to do if the patient did not sign any of those documents while competent, the good and bad of conservatorships and how to preserve the patient’s independence as long as possible.
Join the conversation on Twitter at @UCLAHealth with hashtag #UCLAMDChat to ask questions.
