Make Dementia Your B*tch!

Episode 31: Removing Dementia Stigma & Stereotypes--Interview with Donna Marentay


Listen Later

The current thinking about dementia care needs to change. In today's podcast, I interview Donna Marentay. , fellow nurse and dementia educator. We discuss OUR VIEW of some hot potato topics: how a dementia diagnosis should NOT be a "no-knock warrant" into people's lives; the need for "free range" caregiving versus helicopter caregiving; and the ongoing need to update current educational content to reflect new knowledge about the relationship between neurodegeneration and behaviors.
