Watch: Communicating with Aged-Care Residents (28:18)
Effective communication with elderly people living in residential care is key to the delivery of high-quality treatment that not only meets the physical needs of patients, but also their mental, emotional, social, and spiritual needs. This program examines the basic elements of communication and how they can be adapted to older people who are living with hearing, vision, speech, and cognitive losses. The video also looks at effective communication methods for those from culturally diverse backgrounds. Viewable/printable educational resources are available online. A part of the series Aged Care.

Adults: Age-Specific Care (25:00)
Medical care focused on adults must take into account a wide variety of cultural, physiological, and administrative challenges. The good news is that a patient who has matured and become self-reliant is now ready to act as a partner in his or her own health care decisions. This program explores the requirements of adult care, from the college-level years to retirement and the final phases of life. Reminding viewers that the focus now shifts away from growth and into long-term health maintenance, the video offers guidance on the following topics: heart disease, cancer, maternity, childbirth, parenting, child care, aging, diminishing strength and agility, elder and institutional care, Alzheimer’s and dementia, and the need to retain and maximize quality of life. The dilemma of the “sandwich generation” is also discussed. A part of the series Age-Specific Care: A Guide for Health Care Professionals. (25 minutes)© 2008

Pioneer in Aging: Dr. Robert Butler (30:00)
Dr. Robert Butler knows all about aging. Not only is he in his eighties himself, but he’s the man who coined the term “ageism” and pioneered aging as a field of study. In this program, host Alan Rosenberg sits down with the Pulitzer-winning author for a fascinating and inspiring conversation. It is difficult to face aging in this culture, says Butler, because there’s a pervasive mind-set that people should be self-sufficient, no matter what. Butler also talks about some of the myths of aging, how attitudes about aging must change, and the dearth of geriatric training in medical school despite the growing population of elderly. Loss, denial, preparing for the future, and aging vitally are other important topics. Distributed by PBS Distribution. (30 minutes)
