Watching dementia change someone you love is hard enough — making their medical decisions doesn't have to be.
Balancing how you're feeling with the pressure to make the "right" medical decisions for them — requires clear guidance and a process you're not getting from our healthcare system.
Medical Decision Making 101 is a 90-minute course developed by an experienced ER physician that will help you be proactive, take action, and confidently advocate for someone you love living with dementia.
Being a medical decision-maker comes with a lot of responsibilities, but no clear roadmap for how to handle them.
You have stepped into an incredibly important role, but no one has clearly explained what the next steps are or what you're responsible for.
You're often making important decisions on the fly, stressing over what to do and if you're making the right choice.
There's a lot of pressure, second-guessing, and fear of getting it wrong.
And it's not the only new responsibility you've taken on.
You might have taken over managing finances, hiring help, changing their living situation, or handling other estate-related responsibilities.
Of course, you're doing this while also trying to come to terms with what's happening to them.
Feeling stretched thin and lacking the confidence to speak as their voice during medical situations is not your fault.
You can't change the diagnosis — but you can feel confident about what comes next.
I'm Dr. Brittany Lamb, an ER physician with over a decade of experience caring for people living with dementia.
Every week I speak to family decision-makers navigating care and medical decisions for their person.
Oftentimes, they feel overwhelmed and unsure, struggling to know what to do because they haven't been given the guidance to prepare for those moments.
I want to change that.
Inside Medical Decision Making 101, in just 90 minutes, I'll help you plan for your role over the medical side and the decisions ahead, so you can be proactive instead of reactive.
By following my step-by-step process, you'll:
Take control of medical decisions confidently and proactively,
Learn to make informed choices that truly honor who your person is as an individual and,
Find peace of mind with the decisions you make instead of hesitating and second guessing
I'll give you the missing pieces that healthcare professionals often overlook, whether due to time constraints, lack of knowledge, or other priorities.
Feel confident in your role and prepared for what's ahead

More specifically, you’ll learn:
→ How to speak as your person’s voice
→ How to define their goal of care

The goal is to help you stop guessing and start thinking through decisions in a more structured way.
Who is this for?
This course is for anyone who is, or expects to be, making medical decisions for someone they love living with dementia.
Whether you’re just starting to think about this or already involved in their care, this will help you understand what to focus on and how to approach decisions.
What format is the course in?
The course is made up of short, easy-to-follow video lessons, along with a written ebook that supports and expands on what’s taught in the videos.
You can go through it at your own pace and come back to it anytime.
How long do I have access?
You’ll have lifetime access, so you can revisit the content whenever you need to—especially as your person’s situation changes over time.
Will this tell me exactly what decisions to make for my person?
No, and that’s intentional.
This course helps you understand how to approach decisions, what factors matter in the moment, and what to do ahead of time as your person’s medical decision-maker.
It gives you structure to become prepared so you’re not showing up and reactively making medical decisions.
Will I create a full medical decision plan in this course?
You’ll learn the steps to create one and how to think through it—but you’ll need to take action on your own to build it out.
If you want help thinking through your specific situation and planning in more detail, that’s what my more in-depth program, Make Your Plan with Dr. Lamb is for.
What’s the difference between this and your other program?
Medical Decision Making 101 helps you understand the foundation: how this role works, what matters, and how to prepare for decisions.
Make Your Plan with Dr. Lamb goes further.
It helps you apply this to your specific person—what they’re at risk for medically, what decisions are most likely to come up, and how to plan for those in detail.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed or just want to understand how this all works, start here.
If you’re ready to think through real medical situations and create a more detailed plan, Make Your Plan is the better next step for you.
I feel overwhelmed already. Is this going to be too much?
No. This course is designed to simplify things, not add more to your plate.
Most people come away feeling clearer and more settled in what actually matters, not more overwhelmed.
What if my person already has an advance directive?
That paperwork may be helpful in some situations, but it’s not a full plan.
This course will help you understand how those documents fit into the bigger picture and what else you need to be thinking about.
