Webinar: Caring for the Caregiver: Seeing Our Own Foods in Collaborative Care

November 18, 2025


Dementia is a preventable illness with devastating and enduring impacts not only for patients but their family caregivers, too. An essential strategy to reduce the risk for this disease is through brain healthy diets. And while we know so much about brain health-focused diets, what do we know about mugwort, fluted pumpkin, or soursop? 

Brain health dietitian Maggie Moon, and caregiver, organizer, and neurologist Dona Kim Murphey, will explore how to reduce racialized health disparities through heritage foods, and how culturally tailored dietary interventions may prevent the onset and delay the progression of dementia in both patients and their family caregivers alike.    

Join Maggie Moon, MS, RD, and Dona Kim Murphey, MD PhD CHW on Tuesday, November 18, 2025, from 2-3:30 p.m. ET, for an inspiring look into a caregiver-led pilot program driven by a dynamic neurologist-dietitian partnership. This session will spotlight real-world strategies for building interprofessional care models that truly make a difference. Walk away with practical tools, actionable insights, and ready-to-use resources to help you launch and sustain collaborative programs that improve health outcomes and empower caregivers.

 

Learning Objectives

After completing this contuing education activity, health care professionals will better be able to:

  1. Describe examples of racialized health disparities in dementia care.
  2. Identify brain-healthy foods from heritage diets enjoyed by communities of color in the US.
  3. Discuss three practical steps to launch community-led programs that support brain health.
  4. Explain the impact coordinated interventions and meaningful collaboration across the interprofessional have on patient outcomes.
