Be on the lookout for these five warning signs of dementia
Manage episode 386602120 series 3340809
By 2030, one million Canadians will suffer from dementia. By 2050, that number is expected to triple. Here’s another scary stat: In 2020, care partners (including family members, friends and neighbours) spent 26 hours per week assisting older Canadians living with dementia — the equivalent to 235,000 full-time jobs, or $7.3 billion annually. Bottom line: this disease is taking a devastating toll on Canadians and the people who love them. On this week’s episode of Inside the Village, Frisco and Scott talk to two experts about a lesser-known aspect of dementia research: five potential behaviour changes that could be an early warning sign in people over 50. You’ll want to know what they are. Also on the podcast: This is Burlington!
