Abstract
Caring for someone with advanced health care needs, dementia, or a difficult diagnosis can take a mental, physical and financial toll on the caregiver. It is important for providers to recognize, address and assist caregivers in as many ways as possible. Providing physicians with a readily available patient-education template in Epic may improve outreach and communication with increasingly isolated patients and caregivers and improve care for all without burdening physicians more.
