This comprehensive guide provides an integrated account of palliative care in dementia, outlining common problems and difficulties faced by those with dementia and their carers. It applies a palliative care approach to understanding, assessing and minimising the impact of a comprehensive range of distressing psychiatric symptoms, co-morbidities, and social and psychological distress related to dementia.The emphasis throughout the book is on the individual with dementia and their carers, and promotes a multi-service approach to care in order to reduce suffering and improve autonomy.
