Product Description
Focusing on the growing problem of dementia in the ageing population in Western societies, this text gives practical advice for professionals on coping with dementing illness as well as clinical intervention strategies. It includes a comprehensive overview of the most common dementing illnesses - including Alzheimer's disease - that can be used as a reference in determining the severity and progression of the disease and its potential impact on the caregiver and family. It demonstrates the application of theory and practice models that are particularly useful in developing coping skills, support systems, and navigating the health care/social service maze.

4.0 out of 5 stars Guidelines for dementia patients and their carers..., 19 April 2005
This review is from: Clinical Practice with the Caregivers of Dementia Patients (Paperback)
Excellent book written from a carers perspective. Very informative and excellent for both professionals and students to learn more about how dementia can take hold and change someones life, and with that change the lives of family and friends involved in care.

The book is written concisely and with the required amount of detail without being overtly negative. Can be read easily, and unlike most text books is small and easily held.
