Contributors representing all the major health professions have joined together to provide a detailed source of information on current developments in care-giving for dementia sufferers, aimed at professionals in the field.
Publicity about neuroscientific research into the dementias spreads quickly compared to the advances made in the field of care-giving. "Care-Giving in Dementia" has been written to counterbalance that trend, and to promote care-giving in dementia as a specialization in its own right. Contributors from Europe, America and Australia, representing all the major health care professions, have joined together to provide a detailed source of information on the most recent developments in care-giving in dementia for those working in the field. Four sections deal with models and theories for research and practice; interpersonal interventions in care facilities; interventions in the community; and interventions in the family. The final chapter recommends that all health care professionals working with persons with dementia should receive a joint "core" training programme to which professional-specific training could be added. Common themes running through the chapters are that care must be stage-specific; that professionals must work with the abilities that have been spared; and that lifespan information is needed to plan optimal individualized care.
This book should be of interest to students and professionals in psychiatry, psychology, gerontology, occupational therapy and nursing.
