Jay Newton-Small is the CEO and founder of MemoryWell, a national network of more than 700 writers who tell the life stories of seniors to help improve their care. On this episode of How We Got Here, Jay talks about her father's Alzheimer's diagnosis, the ways caregiving affected her mother's health, and how her perspective on caregiving changed once she became his primary caregiver. She explains the accommodations she made in order to keep her father safe in her home and the moment she realized she could no longer care for him on her own. Jay also discloses both the challenging and humorous moments caring for her dad and how the experience led to the creation of MemoryWell. She explains how storytelling can transform our outcomes-driven healthcare system and help us increase empathy for others. Chris and Jay reflect on practicing forgiveness in caregiving--both to oneself and to those on the receiving end of care. Tap here for more information on MemoryWell.

Jay Newton-Small, CEO and Founder of MemoryWell, a digital storytelling platform for seniors, speaks to George on this episode of DC Entrepreneur. You'll hear how Newton-Small got the idea for the start-up when filling out paperwork to get her father into assisted care after he was diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's disease. As a TIME Magazine correspondent, journalist, and author of Broad Influence, she wrote his story down to help her father's caregivers understand his past better. In this conversation, Jay talks about how MemoryWell worked with Brookdale Senior Living for their pilot program, how she bootstrapped the idea through Kickstarter and by winning pitch competitions before focusing on fundraising, and how her involvement through accelerators such as TechStars and the Halcyon Incubator helped her learn to build a business.

In this episode, host Kerry Amato speaks with Jay Newton-Small, CEO of MemoryWell. Jay and Kerry discuss the idea behind MemoryWell, Jay's personal experience caring for a parent with Alzheimer's disease, and how MemoryWell can help patients and caregivers uncover unexplored social determinants of health and behavioral health issues. Like many healthcare innovations, MemoryWell began as a passion-project borne from a poor healthcare experience, specifically recording a lifetime history as her father entered a care home. Rather than reducing a lifetime to a series of short answers to generic questions on a form, MemoryWell connects people with professional writers to help them construct full, rich stories of their loved ones' lives to guide people interacting with them, whether professional caregivers or distant relatives.The podcast highlights the story of transforming an idea into a business, from deciding who your customers are to scaling processes to move beyond a boutique service. But more than providing a needed service, we discuss how the process for helping create rich stories can also produce output with enough consistency and structure to be mined for information relevant to ongoing care. For MemoryWell, that includes discerning social determinants of health (SDOH) data from the life stories they create, even for more traditional patients and not just those entering long-term care. We also discuss how stories can help people and families recall when behavioral changes may have begun leading to richer histories, and often, a better understanding of the progression of health conditions. Families often find that by working closely with a professional questioner, they can recall and identify patterns that might be indicative of undiagnosed behavioral health issues, leading not just to better understanding but possibly spurring better care for problems that might have otherwise gone unnoticed in the confines of a care setting.One of the most interesting angles of this story for Accelerate Health is how it highlights the contribution to care that non-healthcare professionals can make. Often, one of the blind-spots for healthcare innovators is all the important things that influence a patient when they are outside of the walls of a hospital or a doctor’s office. And perhaps more importantly, that many people have skills that can contribute to a patient’s overall care, even if they aren’t part of the medical staff. Appropriately leveraging non-medical experts where possible is a frequently overlooked accelerator of innovation.

“There are environmental issues that are very important to people on a local level…(but they are) being covered (by the local news media) based on everyday issues in local communities… because it affects tourism, it affects the economy, it affects a lot of things, not to mention the places that we live…(and) because it affects their taxes.” Wanda Lloyd on Green Connections Radio With the news media today critical to our well-being, our economy and democracy, and under attack, we are taking a look inside how the media works, how it covers climate change, and how women reporters are different, with a consummate insider.

Throughout history, young people have been at the center of activism: the Civil Rights movement, Black Lives Matter, the labor movement, and now gun violence. What barriers do young people have to overcome to get adults to listen? What tactics must they employ to get people in power to take them seriously? We hear from young student activists working on issues of racism, inequity, and transgender rights. One recent movement, the #MeToo effort, has mobilized people across the globe in a short period of time. In the second part of the show, Fatima Goss Graves, president of the National Women's Law Center, speaks with journalist Jay Newton-Small about how to keep the energy of #MeToo going.

Each of us has a story to tell…a most important story, that is, the story of our lives. But as we age, and especially if our fate includes a disability like Alzheimer’s disease or dementia, then that story can easily get lost or jumbled. That’s where a new service called MemoryWell comes in. MemoryWell is the brainchild of Jay Newton-Small, an entrepreneur with a long and successful career in journalism. While caring for her own late father, who suffered from Alzheimers, Jay used her writing skills to tell his story in a way that burdensome questionnaires just can’t do. His caregivers loved it, and it totally transformed the quality of care he received. Now MemoryWell is available to all of us, and here to tell us about it is inventor, entrepreneur, and professional journalist Jay Newton-Small. Copyright © 2018 by Danbra LLC. All rights reserved.
Jay Newton-Small is co-founder and CEO of MemoryWell, a network of professional journalists who are using their writing talents to tell the stories of those suffering from Alzheimer’s and other dementias. These stories help caregivers preserve memories and care for people who have memory related health problems. With the number of people in the US with Alzheimer's and memory related illnesses at a staggering 11M, and expected to triple by 2030, this is one of the biggest health problems we are facing. Previously, Jay was the Washington correspondent for TIME Magazine and a journalist for Bloomberg News. Jay is also the author of Broad Influence: How Women Are Changing the Way America Works. In today's show, we discuss Jay's inspiration for founding Memorywell, Jay's start up journey, and we dive into the some of the powerful ideas from Jay's book. Broad Influence examines the concept of critical mass: when women are at least 20 percent of a group, they are more able to use their strengths on the job such as communication, compromising, collaborating across party lines and forming alliances. As you can probably imagine, these are all skills that can be tremendously useful within many types of organizations. We also discuss a fact many ladies are not aware of, public service roles across 40 states are actually ideal for flexibility and part time hours!
Caring for patients with memory loss or dementia can be challenging for even the most attentive, well-meaning caregiver. We meet Jay Newton-Small, a journalist whose new business aims to improve the lives of seniors with a new online resource called MemoryWell; in it, writers tell the stories of those who can’t tell their own. We also hear from Bertina Hanna, head of a caregiving team that uses MemoryWell, about the impact it can have on working with patients.

As the daughter of career UN diplomats, journalist Jay Newton-Small grew up all over the world. But her world was upended when, on top of grieving her mother's sudden death, she had to adjust to a new role as primary caregiver for her Alzheimer's-stricken father. In today's show, Jay talks about adjusting to that new role, the agony of moving her father into an assisted living facility and why she formed her startup, which is transforming care with the help of writers like her. Jay also shares why she chose to follow her bestselling book “Broad Influence” with a project that's been percolating for years: a “joint memoir” about her father's life in his prime and her experience of caring for him in the years before he died. On the eve of the Trump inauguration, we also discuss the cost of long-term care and what it will take for Congress to come up with a plan for addressing this crisis that is bankrupting families.

In conjunction with the United States Studies Centre at the University of Sydney and Sky News Australia’s APAC, the Walkley Foundation is delighted to present this series of six podcasts from the Public Knowledge Forum examining the state of journalism and asking: where to next?] Is the 'market' for news being set by audiences' tastes and expectations or the incentives and preferences of media organisations and journalists? Is it a cause for concern that 'worthy' news might attract small audiences or has it always been that way? Is our usage of the internet as a platform for news degrading or enhancing the quality of our public conversations? Many consumers of news are overloaded with information, but do they know less than ever about current events? Join Time correspondent Jay Newton-Small, opinion editor at US News & Word Report Robert Schlesinger, director of news at the ABC Kate Torney, and ABC host and journalist John Barron for this conversation titled ‘news as serious business’.
