Stan Sharkey - The Legend (Part 3)
from Dementia Dialogues with DTA
For the final part of our 3 part series of Stan Sharkey and his life, made possible by our sit down interview with his daughter Emma (and yes, her beautiful newborn son Cooper) we’ll be discussing Stan’s transition into full time care, the importance of care from the perspective of a loved one, and how diagnosis doesn’t have to become how they’re defined, even after they’re gone. We’d like to show our respect and acknowledge the traditional custodians of these lands. We extend this respect to elders’ past, present, and emerging, and to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. We also pay respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples living with dementia and their carers. We’d like to thank Stan’s daughter, Emma for her contribution in the making of this episode, in recognition of Dementia Action Week. Dementia Dialogues with DTA is produced and funded by Dementia Training Australia. For more information about DTA and our training opportunities, tools and resources please visit dta.com.au.
