DEMENTIA FOR FAMILIES

Christine Campus Manager from Kalandra Education Group

The effect on family life when caring for a loved one with dementia is trying. Especially when they live at home.

In order to care effectively for a person living with dementia you must accept the way things are, and then, introduce change into your life.

Come share and listen to trained staff who understand and want to help.

We'll discuss:
• What dementia is and what living with dementia means
• The grieving process
• Support services and how to access them
• Challenging behaviour and how to respond
• What are the doctors saying and how to understand them
• What happens when keeping your loved one at home is no
longer an option

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
