This episode features two of Dementia UK’s Admiral Nurses – Hilda and Vic. Admiral Nurses are specialist dementia nurses who provide free advice and support to the whole family, as well as the person with the diagnosis.


In this episode, Hilda and Vic delve deeper into some of the themes from Chris’s story to give some extra advice and insight from their expert perspectives. They explore what chronic stress looks like, the role of a 'sandwich carer' and how respite care can offer much-needed support.
