In this original What the Dementia episode, we will discuss an upcoming 5-week asynchronous book club hosted by Bambu Care in their free support community, Bambu Care Champions. The book club will focus on “Reversing Alzheimer’s: The New Toolkit to Improve Cognition and Protect Brain Health” by Dr. Heather Sandison. This book is relevant for those wanting to prevent dementia, people with mild cognitive impairment, and those with dementia seeking to improve cognition and function. The episode provides details about the book club’s format, the book’s key themes, and why it’s a valuable resource for caregivers and individuals concerned about brain health.

She has been in the field of dementia care for over 5 years now as of 2022. Her background is in occupational therapy, specifically in the home setting: home, independent living, assisted living, and memory care. Along her journey, she realized just how big the gaps were in dementia care and just how much our system was failing caregivers. Not just the family caregiver who received no real information, guidance, or education after their partner’s diagnosis, but also the professional caregiver who received very little training (if any) and was often completely at a loss for what to do — which ultimately impacted both the caregiver and the person living with dementia. Consequently, she decided to take a direct step into the dementia care realm so that she could help more people in a more meaningful and impactful way.
