Description
People with dementia often decide their health priorities together with a spouse or adult child who helps with care. Joan Monin, writing alone in a 2024 study, asks how clinicians bring those care partners into that process. She surveyed 34 clinicians who use a structured priorities interview with patients who have dementia and other chronic conditions.
Care partners sat in on about half of the sessions, on average. Clinicians said patients usually answered with only minor help, often worked jointly with the partner, and sometimes let the partner answer almost fully. Most clinicians agreed the process works better with a partner present and goes more smoothly. Many also wished partners had more guidance on how to listen actively during the talk.
