Drawing on years of experience and research, Behers proposes new methods of providing spiritual care to people with dementia. By engaging with patients' senses, chaplains can encourage spiritual awakenings to offer comfort and support. Thoughtful and original, this key text educates chaplains on the most effective ways of providing spiritual care.
This innovative and sensitive guide to providing spiritual care to people with dementia features original methods drawn from the author's experiences of working with over 1,000 individuals with dementia. It provides creative new ways for chaplains to connect with patients whose spiritual needs are all too often neglected.
Ranging from the author's personal experience, factual information about different kinds of dementia and the challenges of pastoral care, it provides instructions for staging a multi-sensory spiritual care intervention with patients. Included are links to exclusive online resources of the author's video presentations and photographs for use in treatment.
This insightful work will prove an essential resource for all chaplains working with people living with dementia, and will enable them to achieve both exceptional patient care and a sense of personal accomplishment.
