Click on the ‘CC’ button to turn on captions.

Meet the creators of Everybody’s Oma, a personal story about one family’s dementia journey. During lockdown, Jason van Genderen’s playful video experiments helped his mother, Hendrika, make sense of her home isolation.

When she moved from living at home to supported care, Jason’s creative approach found hope amidst the heartbreak. In this webinar, Jason and his wife Megan will share their tips for doing dementia differently. They also provide some valuable insights into advocating for a family member in hospitals and aged care homes.

The panel, hosted by Kyle Olsen:

  • Jason van Genderen, experienced filmmaker and Oma’s son
  • Megan van Genderen, nutritionist and partner in care
  • Danielle Robertson, Director, DR Care Solutions
  • Craig Gear, CEO, Older Persons Advocacy Network
