When someone shows signs of dementia, it’s time to talk. Often, conversations with family about changing behaviors can be challenging and uncomfortable. This program, offered by the Alzheimer’s Association, offers tips on how to have the honest and caring conversations to address some of the most common issues.
ECHO MOLST + eMOLST was developed to meet the ever-increasing demand for professional training and technical assistance for practice transformation focused on advance care planning, MOLST and eMOLST. Project ECHO’s innovative approach will support the current and future needs of our clinicians and system leaders.
The aims of ECHO MOLST + eMOLST are to provide sustainable MOLST education and to improve the quality of thoughtful MOLST discussions and documentation to ensure patient preferences are honored at end-of-life, especially in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. Excellus BlueCross BlueShield is a partner with Project ECHO.
ECHO MOLST + eMOLST is a 9-week clinic series. Weekly lunch hour-video conferencing clinics begin with brief introductions and a 15-minute didactic presentation that has been updated in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. This is followed by a 35 to 40-minute real patient case presentation given by a “spoke” using a Q&A and discussion format.
Participants will connect through the Zoom video conferencing platform. For more information or to sign up, contact Meg.Greco@Excellus.com

Integrated Care combines behavioral health and physical health services to provide a more holistic approach to care. There are many ways to integrate services. However, few organizations bring pediatric services to behavioral health and social service settings.
This webinar will examine the collaboration between Strong Children Wellness and The Child Center of New York, a fantastic case example of cross-organization collaborative care. The organizations provide pediatric primary care and behavioral health services to youth and families. During this webinar, their successful model and lessons learned will be discussed. Webinar participants will gain a better understanding of how to integrate services within their work. There will be time for a Q&A to also support participants with a deeper understanding.
