These excerpts address the ethical and practical considerations of palliative care for individuals with Alzheimer's disease (AD). They highlight the importance of balancing medical interventions with the preservation of dignity and quality of life, while also attending to caregiver burdens. The texts explore philosophical and theological concerns, the shifting societal attitudes toward incapacitated adults, and the role of healthcare professionals in providing compassionate care. The sources examine research ethics, drug therapy decisions, and the need for early patient and family education in managing AD. They also stress the importance of respecting individual choice, cultural sensitivity, and ethical decision-making within families and healthcare teams.
