Ep. 01 Christine Bryden - Life in the Slow Lane of Dementia
Today, we excitedly launch The Aged Care Enrichment Podcast with our first episode!
We are talking to the author and long-time dementia advocate, Christine Bryden, about her life with dementia and her work as one of Australia's first dementia advocates.
Christine was diagnosed with early onset dementia in 1995, at the age of forty-six. Her life transformed immediately as she left her job and focused on restructuring her life and raising her three daughters.
In the following twenty-five years she has been incredibly outspoken on her life with dementia, including writing five books about her experiences.
As you will hear, Christine is passionate about addressing some misconceptions of dementia and talks openly about the changes that she would like to see in the way that people with dementia are viewed.
Brought to you by SilVR Adventures (https://silvradventures.com.au/) - every fortnight, we invite aged care industry experts, thought leaders and passionate individuals to share their knowledge and experience with us as we examine ways to improve the quality of care and the quality of life for seniors.
Available on Captivate, Apple, Amazon, Spotify, Google, PodChaser & wherever you get your podcasts from.
If you enjoy the new platform, then we would love your feedback and really appreciate if you would give us a rating. Enjoy and subscribe!
