“Conversations with Caregivers” (bit.do/conversationswithcaregi...) is a series of short videos that offers practical advice from real family caregivers who care for persons with dementia; a general term for diseases that cause the gradual loss of ability to think, communicate, and live independently. These videos are intended to help viewers manage common caregiving challenges; nevertheless, the content will not apply to every situation. Please seek professional medical advice for questions and concerns about your or your loved one’s medical condition.
These videos were produced with support from the S. D. Bechtel, Jr. Foundation and Tideswell at UCSF in partnership with the UCSF Memory and Aging Center. They were made possible by the generosity of the families who agreed to be filmed.

3.35 I have the same issues with my dad,and i totally agree with you there is very little support out there.The cost of carers in the uk is extreme £1100 a week its almost as if its a money grab before they pass in time its disgraceful.
