Luke is joined by Dementia Specialist Tim England, to find out more about an newly released podcast that explores the subject of Dementia and the ethical issues of Social Media.

Dementia is a challenging topic to discuss and is usually avoided. We know that many people associate stigma and fear with dementia, and will actively avoid the subject whenever they can.

But avoiding the subject does not support those with the condition and/or their families. Avoidance only increases social isolation, loneliness, stigma, fear, and increases the burden of family carers.

Find below a Youtube link t0 ‘Ethics of Dementia & Social Media’, which examines and explores the ethical challenges and issues that arise with the rising influence of social media when sharing, recording, and posting individuals who have dementia.
