Take a look at how we reach caregivers and patients.
Disease management isn’t just about pills and medical procedures. It doesn’t happen without the home health aides, family members and patients who fight, every single day, against illness, suffering and loneliness. Century Tree teaches sophisticated topics-- like patient care techniques and disease process— while meeting the learning needs of the people who know about the realities of struggling with chronic disease better than anyone:
There are two areas of at-home disease management that dramatically impact patient stability:
Keeping your patient at “baseline” with:
Even with the most diligent disease management, advanced CHF, type 2 diabetes, COPD and Alzheimer’s dementia patients have acute episodes that can require hospitalization.

When describing chronic diseases to patients,
it is often easier to show them visually in an immersive way to
help them to understand the complex ideas
that are being described to them
Patients with CHF retain water throughout bodies, most obviously in feet and lower legs. Swollen legs can lead to complications like non-healing venous stasis ulcers and dangerous cellulitis infections. “Swelling Sores and Cellulitis,” along with its companion piece, “Keep Leg Swelling Under Control,” teaches caregivers and patients the basics of managing swollen legs and complications.
As a young woman, it would never have occurred to Sally that she would spend most of her forties caring for her aging mother, watching TV with her, going to seemingly endless doctors’ appointments, while fighting the loneliness the two of them share. And then there are times like this one— When Mom wandered off into New York on Halloween night. Acts of Grace is a story about how real problems can be scarier than anything Halloween brings, and about how love can bring solutions.
You didn’t know dogs could talk, did you? Well, they can’t—except in Century Tree videos. ‘Don’t Suffer’ is a humorous way to teach something mundane (but essentially important for keeping COPD safe, stable and out of the hospital)—correct administration of inhaled COPD medications.
Century Tree makes a lot of videos and instruction about the basics of disease management. “Features” are a little different: They’re everything from touching dramas to short documentaries to music videos. Some are moving. Others are funny. All of them are entertaining.
Bahala Na is a beautiful animated short film about a Filipina home health aide balancing caring for sick, and sometimes difficult, patients in Los Angeles—While, at the same time, being a long-distance mother to her children half a world away.
