Episode 5 - Mind Matters: Cognitive Wellbeing in Ageing Parents

  • Resumen

  • Have you noticed your parent becoming increasingly repetitive, forgetful, or acting out of character? While these can be signs of normal cognitive decline and part of the natural aging process, they could also be symptoms of dementia.

    A dementia diagnosis is scary, but early intervention is key, and there are a number of simple things your parent can do to maintain their wellbeing and independence for as long as possible.

    Senior geriatric expert Professor Peter Gonski has a wealth of experience in managing older people’s conditions and progressing models of care. He joins performer, author and host of ‘Parenting Up with Australian Unity’, Jean Kittson AM, to explain how to recognise the signs of declining cognitive health, when to raise your concerns, and what to do after a dementia diagnosis.
