Summary
In this episode, I do a deep dive talking about a requested topic: dementia. It can be hard to find good information and advice about dementia online, so I hope that this episode can serve that function.
I go in-depth and cover the following:
- Dementia terminology
- What kinds of dementia there are
- How to get a diagnosis
- Managing difficult behaviors
- Support available for caregivers
If you have a suggestion for a future deep dive topic or have a question that you'd like me to answer, send it to duffthepsych@gmail.com
