I hear you.
In fact I just finished replying to yet another debate about the terminology used in describing so much related to how people continue to judge, view, misrepresent and have unfair expectations on those who live with dementia.
I questioned why, still, are we having this debate about terminology????
I questioned when Alz.Aust, myself, (personally),and the ADCJ 2014 set clear guidelines years ago, re abolishing and changing negative views, starting with terminology, this was so disrespected that our health professionals continue to be so arrogant, self indulgent and rigid that they have STILL not changed, thus the time wasted is impacting on the very people we are supposed to be caring for.
I then discussed that I took heed, made my own small steps regardless of what anyone thinks about my work, and continue to do everything I can to move forward.
So why is it, that this debate continues?
Thus I invited all those who were agreeing and are still discussing what we need to do, to actually do it with me as I did, and be the change, NOW!!!!!
There’s no doubt about that Kate!
Glad yo agree… not that I had any doubt!!
