Health & Living Live 2019 Part 1 of 4: The Sandwich Generation

How does the world around us – our environment, our culture and our relationships – interact with our health? One of the most pressing social issues facing us today is the physical and emotional toll faced by the sandwich generation: middle-aged individuals who are pressured with the obligation to support and care for their elderly parents while also raising their children. This is an edited recording of the panel discussion that was held at the BFM Health & Living Live 2019 by AIA Vitality. Members of the panel were: Dr Peter Ng Eng Pin, Consultant Urologist; Dr Mohd Rusdi Abdullah, Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon; Dr Lee Say Fatt, Consultant Obstetrician & Gynaecologist; Shantini Ruth Vanniasingham, Clinical Psychologist, Subang Jaya Medical Centre

Produced by: Tina Carmillia
