Dementia Diagnosis - Diligence and Determination

On this episode, the CEO of the Dementia Society of Ottawa – serving Ottawa and Renfrew County (Canada), Monique Doolittle-Romas joins us to talk about the explosion of cases in an aging population and what caregivers need to know…while including those recently diagnosed.We start with the diagnosis, or simply concerns about a loved one doing new things like “putting the TV remote in the fridge” (for example). This isn’t about being forgetful. It’s more.What do you do next? Monique has some advice: Reach out, research and recognize your resilience. There shouldn’t be shame. And that can make the difference.Our Socials:Youtube: @TheInnerShiftPodcastFacebook/Instas and Twitter :@TheInnerShiftPodcastAmy: FB/Insta @LifeInTheSandwichKimothy: Youtube @KimothyAWalker, Insta and FB @KimothyWalkerDementia Society of Ottawa: https://www.facebook.com/TheDementiaSociety/https://ca.linkedin.com/company/dementia-society-of-ottawa-and-renfrew-countyThe Dementia Society (@thedementiasociety) • Instagram photos and videosThe Dementia Society of Ottawa and Renfrew County (@TheDementiaSoc) / XPlease follow and subscribe to help us continue to talk about mental health.
