kendallogo

The Kendal® Corporation is pleased to present its first podcast program, a presentation by Dr. Dennis McCullough, MD, author of My Mother, Your Mother: Embracing “Slow Medicine,” the Compassionate Approach to Caring for Your Aging Loved Ones. Slow Medicine advocates for careful anticipatory “attending” to an elder’s changing needs rather than waiting for crises that force acute medical interventions—thereby improving the quality of elders’ extended late lives without bankrupting their families financially or emotionally. Dr. McCullough spoke recently as Kendal Corporation’s guest at the American Association of Homes and Services for the Aging conference held in Philadelphia.

In this podcast, you will hear Dr. McCullough’s talk, and the question-and-answer session following his presentation.

Dennis McCullough, M.D., has been an “in-the-trenches” family physician and geriatrician for 30 years. He is a graduate of Harvard College and Harvard Medical School, and serves as a faculty member in the Department of Community and Family Medicine at Dartmouth Medical School. He is a member of the American Geriatrics Society, the American Academy of Family Physicians, the Society of Teachers of Family Medicine, and the American Medical Directors Association, as well as the coauthor of The Little Black Book of Geriatrics. He lives with his wife, the poet Pamela Harrison, in Norwich, VT.
