You can be there for families like Carol and Frank's
A dementia diagnosis can be frightening and overwhelming, impacting daily life and leaving families facing an uncertain path, just as it did for Carol. She experienced deep frustration and even panic attacks as she adjusted to the changes dementia brought to her life.
Carol and her husband Frank found trusted information, emotional support and social connection through the National Dementia Helpline and other Dementia Australia services.
