Description
How do you keep people with dementia safe — without taking away their freedom?
In Part 2 Munah Bagharib travels to Japan to see how communities are helping people with dementia stay visible, included, and part of everyday life.
She follows one of Japan’s 31,000 Yakult Ladies on her door-to-door deliveries to see how she checks for dementia discreetly. Munah also travels to Obu city, home to a population that’s comparable to Singapore’s Bishan estate, to find out how the city is raising dementia awareness across age groups.
As Singapore faces a growing dementia challenge, what can we learn before more families lose sight of their loved ones?
