Finding a good geriatric doctor will help. They can put a person in touch with palliative teams, and at least know how to help a person. It helps if you live in a big city, or near one.

I think his primary is one. I know he and his partners regularly treat patients on location at our local nursing homes. And, he’s talked to us regularly about what to expect with the progressive of the dementia and heart disease. I will ask what he recommends. He knows my dad’s condition so well.

Your local hospice should be able to inform you about local palliative care.
