Join Amy Shaw, PA—Medical Director, Dementia Care Specialist, and author of The Arc of Conversation: A How-to Guide for Goals of Care Conversations—for a live AGE-U-Cate webinar on Wednesday, November 5, 2025. The event continues the national conversation sparked by the PBS documentary Aging in America: Survive or Thrive, exploring how we can move from awareness to lasting impact in aging and dementia care.
Dr. Balfour Mount, the father of palliative care in North America, transformed how we approach serious illness and end of life. His legacy lives on in my work in comprehensive dementia care, which is rooted in the same principles of dignity, comfort, and family-centered support.
Hospice care in dementia is a deeply personal choice. Learn when it begins, what it provides, and how it brings comfort, dignity, and peace for families.

Join Amy Shaw’s free Dementia Caregiver Support Group in Cheyenne, WY, held monthly at the Laramie County Library. Together we share stories, learn practical caregiving strategies, and find encouragement from others who understand the journey.
Many patients with advanced illness receive care that doesn’t match their wishes. Learn how goals of care conversations—and a “graduate-level Dementia 101”—help families move from overwhelmed to empowered.
Join Amy Shaw, PA, for a free community talk on dementia caregiving. Discover how understanding the what, when, and why of dementia — and applying the Four Pillars of Caregiving Success — can help families provide better care and experience a more confident dementia journey.
