Dementia is now Australia's leading cause of death, yet most families still don't talk about it until they're already in crisis. In this episode, Naomi sits down with Co-Founder of Aged Care Conversations, Louise Greene to unpack what it actually looks like to support a loved one through a dementia diagnosis. Louise works alongside families every day as they navigate a dementia diagnosis, helping them find the right support through My Aged Care and connect with the community that makes caring for someone with dementia a little less isolating. In this episode:

The early signs of dementia families to look out for
Why a dementia diagnosis can take years, and why getting one matters
How to register for My Aged Care, and what Louise's team actually helps with
What to weigh up when choosing an aged care facility — care needs, location and affordability
Why carer isolation is so common, and where to find real support, including dementia cafes
What the research says about reducing your own risk of dementia
Louise's new resource for Dementia Action Week, Discussing Dementia [placeholder — confirm cost and availability]
