For the first time, those at the front lines of care have access to
a single source for a comprehensive set of practical tools to
effectively address distressing and harmful interactions between
residents with dementia. This prevalent but under-recognized public
health problem in long-term care homes results in serious
consequences, including psychological harm, physical injuries, and
even death. After examining the potential consequences and
manifestations of these behavioral expressions, readers learn how
to identify the contributing factors, causes, unmet needs, and
triggering events that commonly lead to these episodes. With an
emphasis on person-directed care practices, this book describes
numerous psychosocial strategies to use for prevention and
de-escalation prior to, during, and after episodes of harmful
resident-to-resident incidents.This valuable resource will help
inform training programs for direct care staff, interdisciplinary
teams, and LTC administrators. In addition to cost savings from
reduced resident-to-resident incidents, care providers will see
significant improvements in resident and staff well-being.
