Podcasts about caregivers

The Caregiver's Journal hosted by Lance A. Slatton with Cindy (PT) & Christina (ST) Hardin-Weiss.   The Caregiver's Journal is the show where we are sharing the caregiving experiences, stories, and wisdom of family caregivers.   Chapter 16 - "Family Caregiver":   About Madeline Bastida:   My name is Madeline Bastida, but most people call me Maddy. I'm a proud Puerto Rican from New York City, now living in Washington State. I'm a daughter, advocate, and creative soul navigating life while caring for my dad, Fernando, who is living with Alzheimer's.   Our journey began when my dad started showing early signs of memory loss, when he lived in Puerto Rico, and everything changed. I felt overwhelmed and alone, unsure of where to turn. But over time, I realized that this wasn't just a diagnosis, it was a chance to connect deeper, love harder, and find purpose through pain.   That's why I created my platform to share real, joyful, and honest moments between me and my dad, to remind others they're not alone. From dancing through sundowning episodes to finding peace in small wins, I've made it my mission to advocate for caregivers and those living with dementia or Alzheimer's.   I also volunteer for the Alzheimer's Association since they helped me a lot, I want to provide support. and I recently launched a fundraiser and awareness campaign through my Mindful Memory Solutions a website that I just created.

Episode 118 - Zach Demopoulos shares his caregiving journey, highlighting the corporate struggle, lack of support and vital need for employer resources and family inclusion.

Jennifer J. Brown is a scientist, a writer, and a mother who never got the luxury of separating those roles. Her memoir When the Baby Is Not OK: Hopes & Genes is a punch to the gut of polite society and a medical system that expects parents to smile through trauma. She wrote it because she had to. Because the people who gave her the diagnosis didn't give her the truth. Because a Harvard-educated geneticist with two daughters born with PKU still couldn't get a straight answer from the very system she trained in.We sat down in the studio to talk about the unbearable loneliness of rare disease parenting, the disconnect between medical knowledge and human connection, and what it means to weaponize science against silence. She talks about bias in the NICU, the failure of healthcare communication, and why “resilience” is a lazy word. Her daughters are grown now. One's a playwright. One's an artist. And Jennifer is still raising hell.This is a conversation about control, trauma, survival, and rewriting the script when the world hands you someone else's lines.Bring tissues. Then bring receipts.RELATED LINKS• When the Baby Is Not OK (Book)• Jennifer's Website• Jennifer on LinkedInFEEDBACKLike this episode?

Dalton SizemoreBiology with Heart, Humor, and a DrawlI'm Dalton — a molecular biologist, science communicator, and caregiver. I hold a BS and MS in Cell and Molecular Biology from Appalachian State University, where I focused on cancer biology, virology, and immunology. My research explored how viruses like VSV might be used to disrupt the immune processes that help cancer metastasize. I also hold a graduate certificate in clinical psychology, which helps me bridge the gap between the science of the body and the realities of the human experience.But the truth is, everything I've done in science is rooted in something far more personal.I'm a survivor of childhood abuse. My father left when I was young, and my mother — who raised me on her own — endured two severely abusive relationships: one during my childhood, and another while I was in high school and starting college. Those years shaped me deeply. They taught me what it means to live in chaos and still push forward, to carry pain and still protect others, and to learn, even when nothing in your life feels safe.While I was earning my degrees, I was also a full-time caregiver. My mom nearly died from a MRSA infection that turned into a kidney crisis. My grandmother is disabled and was one of the first people in the U.S. to receive an implantable defibrillator. My sister has a seizure disorder that renders her disabled. At 22, I was managing emergency care, making medical decisions, studying biochemistry and organic chemistry, and trying not to fall apart.Want to be a guest on Book 101 Review?

This episode of Standard Deviation features Oliver Bogler in conversation with Dr Na Zhao, a cancer biologist caught in the crossfire of science, politics, and survival. Na's life reads like a brutal lab experiment in persistence.She grew up in China, lost her mother and aunt to breast cancer before she turned twelve, then came to the United States to chase science as both an immigrant and a survivor's daughter. She worked two decades to reach the brink of independence as a cancer researcher, only to watch offers and grants vanish in the political chaos of 2025.Oliver brings her story into sharp focus, tracing the impossible climb toward a tenure-track position and the human cost of a system that pulls the ladder up just as people like Na reach for it. This conversation pulls back the curtain on the NIH funding crisis, the toll on early-career scientists, and what happens when personal tragedy fuels professional ambition.Listeners will walk away with a raw sense of how fragile the future of cancer research really is, and why people like Na refuse to stop climbing.RELATED LINKSDr Zhao at Baylor College of MedicineDr Zhao on LinkedInDr Zhao's Science articleIndirect Costs explained by US CongressFEEDBACKLike this episode?

What if senior living operators could predict health risks before they turn into hospitalizations? What if caregivers had real-time insights—without relying on cameras, push buttons, or wearables residents don't want to use?   On this episode of Foresight Radio (Tech Tuesday edition), host Steve Moran sits down with Stuart Hamilton, Founder & CEO of Amba, to explore how passive sensors and AI are creating a new standard for senior living care.   Stuart shares the journey of building Amba after moving his own father into a community and realizing the technology gap. Today, Amba's platform helps operators in the U.S., Canada, and the U.K. reduce falls, detect infections earlier, and give caregivers back valuable time—while protecting resident dignity and privacy.   Top Takeaways Why “no cameras, no buttons” matters: Passive sensors track health, sleep, and activity in the background. Real outcomes: Communities using Amba report 50–60% fewer nighttime falls and 30% fewer hospitalizations. Caregiver empowerment: Alerts are simple, customizable, and reduce low-value tasks—so staff can focus on meaningful interactions. AI in action: From natural language EHR summaries to voice-activated dashboards, AI is making care easier, not harder. Medicare reimbursement opportunity: Learn how communities can offset costs through physician partnerships and clinical monitoring codes. If you're a senior living operator, innovator, or tech partner, this episode will change how you think about the role of technology in aging services.

On this week's Hope for the Caregiver radio show and podcast, I shared why healthy caregivers make better caregivers—and how small daily choices shape our future. From rest and prayer to forgiveness and boundaries, each decision helps caregivers reduce stress, avoid resentment, and stay strong for the long journey. Check out my friend Dale's page that I referenced in the first block. https://richerhealthforyou.com/ I also spoke with Carolyn Wheeler O'Byrne, founder of Daisy's Place in Florence, Alabama, a nonprofit offering safe housing, meals, and support for families caring for loved ones in the hospital. Born out of her own experience sleeping in a hospital parking lot, Carolyn now provides caregivers with a refuge of rest and community rooted in Christian faith.
