The policy goal to support older people living with dementia at home for as long as possible challenges formal care systems to deliver responsive community supports for older people and their families. An issue that remains under-theorized are the tensions among the ‘interests’ of those involved in different ways in the problem of care at home: people living with dementia and their families, service providers and policy makers. To access and understand some of these different ways of thinking we made a film from our ethnographic data (ethnodrama), and then used this film as a starting point for discussion with these groups. This chapter describes the outcomes of this film and focus group intervention, highlighting that although families, providers and policy makers may be related through their common interests, they do not necessarily have the same interests in common. |
