Caregiving Challenges and Solutions in The Villages: An Open Forum in The Villages Florida Exclusive Interview PBS Film Maker Chris Durrance
In this episode of the Open Forum in The Villages, Florida, host Mike Roth interviews Chris Durance, a film producer with extensive experience in caregiving-related projects. They discuss Chris's latest film on caregiving, which will air on PBS. The conversation covers the challenges faced by family caregivers, particularly in communities like The Villages, and highlights the importance of understanding caregiving through various perspectives. Chris emphasizes the need for broader societal recognition of care-giving issues and the role of community support in addressing these challenges. The episode also features Alzheimer's tips from Dr. Craig Curtis and encourages listeners to share their caregiving stories online to build a supportive community.
Here's the Caregiving Share Your Story link Chris mentioned, where people can see Bradley Cooper and others -- and share their own stories.
