The Truth About Dementia Care No One Talks | Grief, Caregivers & Compassion, Ep 8
This conversation is not just about Alzheimer's and dementia, it's about care, compassion, culture, and what happens when systems fail the very people they're meant to protect.
In this powerful episode of the Sense Only Podcast, Alicia is joined by Dr. Lori James, founder of the James Dixon Foundation, created in honour of her late father. Together, they explore the deeply human realities of dementia care from the lack of caregiver training, to the emotional and spiritual toll on families, to the stark differences between home care and institutional care.
They speak openly about:
*Why dementia care requires more than medical knowledge
*The harmful impact of untrained caregiving
*Why caring for the caregiver is essential, not optional
*The cultural differences in how families care for loved ones
*The emotional weight carried by those walking the Alzheimer's road
*Why these conversations must stay open and public
This episode is for:
*Families caring for loved ones with Alzheimer's or dementia
*Caregivers who feel unseen, exhausted, or unsupported
*Anyone navigating grief, responsibility, and love at the same time
*Those seeking understanding, connection, and real conversation
