Linus Health

What does Linus Health Chief Strategy Officer Dr. John Showalter anticipate will take center stage when it comes to brain health next week at HLTH USA? In a conversation with HITea with Grace podcast host Grace Vinton, Dr. Showalter explains why prioritizing brain health is just as important as caring for the heart, lungs, and kidneys, particularly for aging well and leading a fulfilling life. Innovative research continues to demonstrate how lifestyle factors—such as exercise, diet, and social engagement—can help stabilize or even improve brain health. If you would like to learn more about brain health and longevity, Dr. Showalter will be participating in the “Braniacs” panel discussion alongside other cognitive health leaders. They will explore the latest advancements in brain health technology, from cutting-edge diagnostics and personalized treatment plans to innovative care models designed to meet the unique needs of aging adults. The session will take place on Monday, Oct. 21, from 11:30 am to 12:10 pm PT at the Gallery Stage. https://lnkd.in/gBXNrHmu I #HLTH2024 #BrainHealth #AlzheimersDisease #Dementia #HLTH24

Lauren Miller Rogen and Seth Rogen hope that through their work with Hilarity for Charity (HFC) and screenings of “Taking Care,” more people will discuss Alzheimer’s and the caregiving struggles facing families affected by the disease. This summer, Linus Health had the opportunity to work alongside the organization and Not Impossible Labs for HOSA-Future Health Professionals’s annual meeting to raise awareness of the importance of better brain health. Leveraging our personalized Brain Health Action Plan, we collaborated to develop the NeuroQuest Quiz for the 10,000+ future health professionals in attendance, enabling them to learn more about taking charge of their cognitive health and mental wellness.

Ageism Awareness Day is an opportunity to draw attention to the impact of ageism in our society and how we can reframe aging in our communities. As we age, it’s crucial to remain vigilant about our health, including our cognitive health. But it's equally important to remember that aging doesn’t automatically mean cognitive decline or dementia. Here are a few key points to keep in mind: ? Stay Alert to Changes: Be mindful of signs of dementia, but don't assume someone has it based solely on their age. Factors like medications or mental health can also affect memory. ? Get Screened Early: Routine screenings for cognitive health starting at age 55 are essential. Early detection can lead to better management of any underlying conditions. ? Respect and Empathy: Approach every individual with respect, free from assumptions. Together, we can break the cycle of ageism and support healthy aging! Join Linus Health on #AgeismAwarenessDay on Oct. 9 to bring attention to the issue of ageism in our society. Let’s #TalkAboutAgeism! https://lnkd.in/gyWWHA_s I #AgeismAwarenessDay #TalkAboutAgeism #CognitiveHealth #BrainHealth

In a recent interview with Pharmacy Times’ Gillian McGovern, Linus Health Chief Strategy Officer John Showalter, MD, MSIS, highlighted the critical role of early detection in mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and the transformative potential of digital technology in this area. Traditional paper-based cognitive assessments often lack the sensitivity needed for early identification, whereas digital cognitive assessments can significantly improve accuracy. Dr. Showalter pointed out that pharmacists can be pivotal in referring patients for digital cognitive screenings if they think someone might be showing early signs of a cognitive issue–especially when it comes to older patients taking antidepressants. Advancements in artificial intelligence and machine learning are set to enhance cognitive screening, with promising technologies on the horizon that analyze hearing as well as voice and speech patterns to identify early signs of cognitive impairment. https://lnkd.in/gvvi_nmt I #MildCognitiveImpairment #Dementia #BrainHealth #AlzheimersDisease
