In 2023, it is estimated that over 487,000 Australians are living with dementia. Without a medical breakthrough, this number will rise to approximately 652,000 by 2033 and around 1.1 million by 2058. With these concerning figures, we must deepen our understanding of managing and supporting those affected by this challenging condition.
