What does wound care have to do with ADHD? A lot more than you might think. In this eye-opening episode of Grandma Has ADHD , host Jami Shapiro welcomes back Kayva Jha, a business development manager in mobile wound care and a passionate advocate for connecting the dots between physical health, mental health, and neurodiversity. Together, Jami and Kayva unpack how ADHD impacts wound care, healing, and compliance—especially for adults over 50. From missed medications and forgotten routines to nutrition challenges, chronic pain, and social isolation, ADHD can quietly shape the way wounds are cared for and how they heal. Kayva shares real-world insights from her work with seniors and patients, explaining how nutrition, lifestyle, and support systems make all the difference in recovery. She also opens up about her own struggles with perfectionism, independence, and accepting help—reminding us that caring for ourselves isn’t weakness, it’s survival. Whether you live with ADHD, support someone who does, or simply want to better understand the link between neurodiversity and healthcare, this powerful conversation will leave you with a new perspective on both wound care and self-care.
