Blogs 2021 - The Importance Of Care
We’re finishing the year with 5 special themed podcasts sharing some of the narrated blogs we’ve published throughout the year, introduced by Adam Smith. If you’re just catching up, earlier this week we covered some science, we had tips for new researchers, the importance of involving people in research and today, we have four more blogs on the topic of care and psychosocial interventions. It is so important that care research be undertaken alongside the basic science, helping to ensure we can look after those who live with the disease today, whilst also working to understand and prevent the disease. Dr Anna Volkmer, Senior Researcher and Speech and Language Therapist from University College London narrates her blog titled "Dementia Care over the Past 25 Years - from there is nothing we can do, to a range of interventions". Dr Alys Griffiths, Psychologist, Lecturer and Research Tutor at The University of Liverpool narrates her blog titled "Relational Councelling As a Psychosocial Intervention in Dementia". Nathan Stephens, PhD Student from University of Worcester reads his blog discussing "Rebalancing Gender in Care". Dr Prerana Sabnis, reads her blog discussing the research published by Dr Aida Suarez-Gonzalez How the COVID-19 Lockdown Impacted People with Dementia and their Carers".
