How often does dementia go undiagnosed? What's the real cost of waiting for a crisis? This episode challenges the way we think about dementia care and provides a new perspective for caregivers. We're asking the tough questions and uncovering the often-overlooked gaps in support.

Our conversation dives deep into the global challenges of dementia care. First, we examine why early diagnosis is so critical. Then, we explore why families so often feel isolated and alone. Most importantly, we'll discuss the key to helping your loved one remain independent. We also provide actionable strategies for caregivers and share why a person with dementia still has a deep need for purpose.

Join us as we explore every facet of dementia, from global initiatives to the most intimate, personal struggles. This isn't just about managing an illness; it's about helping someone live a full life. By focusing on maintaining their independent living skills, you can foster a healthier relationship and improve their well-being. Ultimately, the goal is to keep them independent for as long as possible.
