3-12-2020 Episode 24: Dementia & Intimacy Caregiver Crossing

    • Non-Profit

This week’s episode of Caregiver Crossing the Podcast covers a sensitive but very important subject for the millions of couples affected by a dementia diagnosis.

Dementia and Alzheimer’s diagnoses bring many changes to people’s lives, including changes to intimacy between partners. These changes can be overwhelming, difficult and hard to discuss with others.

Jenni Muncie-Sujan, a licensed social worker with Just Friends Adult Day Services in Columbus, IN, sits down with us to discuss how to give a voice to these frustrations and be supported, and how to navigate the changes and this new season in a relationship.

(A gentle disclaimer that this podcast does candidly discuss a sensitive topic, and listener discretion may be advised.)
