In episode 6, Lillian and Shelley speak with someone that is a friend and a colleague. Mariko Sakamoto is a post doctoral fellow with the Centre for Research on Personhood in Dementia. She is a registered nurse with a background in community health nursing. Her research is person-oriented, and focuses on the first-hand experiences of people living with dementia. Mariko discusses how she got into gero nursing, understanding the importance of person centred care, and how Participatory Action Research is giving a voice to persons with dementia which is helping to dispel some stigmas and affording them meaningful input into their own care.
