California's Aging Wave Is Testing Its Care System | Dayan Goodenowe

Across California, more families are reaching the point where an aging parent needs more care than relatives can safely provide at home. The next step can bring costs and decisions that many families have had little time to prepare for.

The pressure begins well before someone enters a long-term care facility. By the time dementia has changed daily life at home, families may already be confronting a system with few options focused on what could have been done earlier.

Dr. Dayan Goodenowe, a dementia and longevity researcher and founder of Prodrome Science, joins us to explain why so many families reach this point and what he believes should happen before the decline becomes a crisis.
