Description: It is well recognized that early diagnosis and ongoing management of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) requires a patient-centric, highly coordinated effort among a large multidisciplinary team of clinicians. As such, this proposed initiative establishes meaningful, small group interactions among key stakeholders (neurologists, dementia specialists, geriatricians, geriatric psychologists, radiologists, and primary care clinicians) that will, through a variety of collaborative educational experiences, help all members of the care team consider approaches to reducing barriers to effective coordinated care and encourages each participant to create an action plan to improve the quality of AD care delivered within their organization. Considering the complexity of this challenge, lack of expertise, and the breadth of communication and cooperation required, participants would highly benefit from an educational intervention that includes discussions with knowledgeable experts and peers from within and outside of their own communities who can share experiences, strategies, challenges, and success stories.

Kyle Duale

University Hospitals

I am the clinical pharmacy specialist specializing in neuromuscular and memory care at University Hospitals Neurological Institute and University Hospitals Brain Health and Memory Institute. I have been heavily involved in onboarding most all of our patients at UH to begin treatment with amyloid targeting therapies such as lecanemab and donanemab for mild cognitive impairment. My role includes educating/counseling all new start patients about treatments, submitting all infusion orders, and educating healthcare professionals utilizing evidence based medicine. I have a passion for managing patients navigating the complex world of cutting edge pharmacology/healthcare. Safely and effectively bridging the clinical gap between complex pharmacology to real world patient application is paramount in the evolving world of healthcare and is at the core of my everyday practice.
