A new documentary will premier Thursday on Netflix that will examine the experiences of one man as a dementia educator, academic researcher and grandson of a dementia sufferer.
Phoenix, Arizona Thursday and on Netflix and other media platforms May 1. The new documentary will examine the experiences of one man as a dementia educator, academic researcher and grandson of a dementia sufferer.Audiences will be able to hear from someone who has both witnessed dementia in his family and has the medical expertise to offer straight facts on the disease. That man is Neuropsychologist Dr. John DenBoer—a U.S.
“There is so much misinformation around dementia - especially among the older generation,” DenBoer said. “Over the course of their lives, they’ve heard all kinds of information about dementia and now aren’t sure what to believe. Fortunately, we have a lot clearer picture of the many causes of different types of dementia. The trick is getting accurate information out there.”
“Almost everyone I speak to has been touched by dementia in some way - a partner, friend, or family member,” says DenBoer. “People want to know how to help; what they can do to support someone living with the disease. But most importantly they want to hear from someone with a personal experience of assisting a person with dementia, not just another medical professional. I hope this documentary will offer understanding, education and above all hope to people living with dementia.
