Dementia: The Caregivers' Journey | Special Eyewitness News Podcast

In a special podcast produced by the WABC-TV Community Affairs Department, we present "Dementia: The Caregivers' Journey." Host Nina Pineda examines the challenges that caregivers face as they help a loved one with dementia. She discusses her experience taking the "Virtual Dementia Tour, " an experience created by the Act Now Foundation, a New Jersey nonprofit that helps caregivers of those with the condition. The tour gives caregivers immersive insights into the complex difficulties their loved ones face. The eight minutes Nina spent in the tour were nothing short of life-changing. She discusses her experiences, as well as important tips for caregivers, with Kristine Allen, the president and co-founder of Act Now, and Cary Lopez, co-founder and executive director. WABC-TV has partnered with Act Now for a television report and this podcast, distributed on the feed of WABC-TV's public affairs show Up Close. Learn more about your ad choices.
