    Apr 10 2024
    As part of our You and Your Brain webinar series, a collaboration between HealthyWomen, Prevention & Women’s Alzheimer’s Movement at Cleveland Clinic, we’re going to explore the “Truth About Sleep.” We all know quality sleep is essential for overall health, affecting both our physical and mental functioning. To put it simply, without enough sleep, the brain cannot function properly, with sleep deficiency linked to many chronic health conditions, such as diabetes, stroke, heart disease, dementia and Alzheimer’s. Unfortunately, most adults — especially women from midlife on — experience difficulty sleeping at some point in their lives, and for many, sleep quality can get worse with age. Learn from leading experts about the benefits of good sleep hygiene, the practices that make for a good night’s sleep, and practical advice and solutions you can use right now to master better sleep hygiene.

  • Caregiving Insights with Alex and John
    Feb 14 2024
    Today's Episode Dr. Raj is joined by Todd Keitz of the “Caregiving Insights” podcast to talk with father/daughter duo Alex and John about their joint adventures working together as EMTs in Connecticut. Today’s Guest Alex is about to finish up her Neuroscience degree at Middlebury College with a minor in Theatre. During her time as a student, Alex took off a semester to work as a medical assistant at a local hospital in Vermont to help alleviate the staffing issues with the COVID-19 pandemic. Outside of medicine, Alex performs with an improv comedy troupe and an acapella group on campus and has starred in the occasional short film. We often hear of a child following a parent’s footsteps by going into the family business or going into the same line of work. That being said, it's probably less likely you've heard of a daughter or son becoming an EMT because their dad was an EMT - and following in her dad's footsteps she also became an EMT at the age of 16. John spent his professional career in advertising and marketing in the US and Europe, but always had an interest in medicine and first aid. It wasn't until his kids were in high school that he felt he could take the time to become an EMT. Fortunately, the Wilton Volunteer Ambulance Corps in Wilton, CT sponsors two EMT classes a year for its residents. John completed the course and became a licensed EMT and NREMT in December of 2016. He went on to volunteer for the next six years including the intense period during the COVID-19 lockdown in the New York area. John also served as Secretary and President of the Wilton Corps of EMTs. Training young EMTs is a central objective to WVAC, and unlike many services, the group accepts EMTs as young as 16 years old. Last year, John and his wife bought a small inn on Cape Cod and had to leave WVAC. He will never forget how much he learned and grew through serving as an EMT including the notable life experience and sharing several shifts on the ambulance with his daughter Alex.
