Demystifying dementia and the stereotypes

Afternoons

Dementia is not a dirty word. And yet too many of us fear developing it or engaging with a loved one who has it. It doesn't need to be this way says Rose Capp. She's an Australian aged-care specialist and policy advisor. She helps families find the right words to understand the world from the perspective of someone living with dementia. She tackles misconceptions about what it is and shares how to live as well as possible with this progressive disease. Her new book is called Demystifying Dementia: Everything You Need to Know.
