‘Dementia Downunder’ – Youtube Channel

Brett0 comment

I  just wanted to remind you all about the Dementia Downunder Youtube Channel. I will be creating a series of short videos over the next few months that will allow me to share my tips about positive dementia care. The future videos will all be 3 minutes or less in duration and will cover my Top 10 positive dementia care tips.

I have created two videos so far with one released today which is an excerpt from my very first presentation as a dementia advocate (Dementia Friendly Communities). It demonstrates some of the lifestyle activities I am involved with at the nursing home plus a few funny stories. This short video was taken 8/9/2015 but certainly covers my thoughts on dementia friendly communities.

Please subscribe to the channel by clicking the ‘SUBSCRIBE’ button.
