About this listen

 When someone you love is living with dementia, the future can feel frightening, confusing, and full of impossible choices. In this episode, Clive Bowman - formerly a leading physician and Medical Director at Bupa - demystifies what good care really looks like and how families can prepare before crisis forces their hand.

Drawing on decades spent at both the bedside and the boardroom, Clive explains why early planning matters, how to spot a high-quality care home, and why transparency with professionals is essential. He shares extraordinary real-world stories about medication, sedatives, and the difference the right environment can make for quality of life, dignity, and connection.

If you want to know when to start looking at care options, why transitions into care can improve a person’s wellbeing, and what truly distinguishes a compassionate care home, then this is a must-listen-to episode.
