The only guide to caring for those with advanced Alzheimer disease.
Winner of the IPPY Book Award Health/Medicine/Nutrition by the
Independent Publisher Caring for someone living with advanced
Alzheimer disease is a challenge. It can make you feel like you're
on a hamster wheel-running in circles, trying the same things over
and over with no effect on your loved one. You may also find it
difficult to connect with your loved one and to understand what
those living with Alzheimer disease are going through. In The Busy
Caregiver's Guide to Advanced Alzheimer Disease, Dr. Jennifer
Stelter, a psychologist working in memory care, shares a new model
designed to help caregivers understand, cope with, and handle some
of the most challenging behaviors associated with the disease while
encouraging and reinforcing independence and quality of life for
their loved ones. Her Dementia Connection Model, which is based on
current scientific research, will aid you in forging a positive
bond with your loved one with less frustration. Win-win! Follow
along, step by step, as Dr. Stelter outlines the three main
elements of the Dementia Connection Model and learn how to put
these elements into practice to help with * communication problems
* eating difficulties * mobility concerns * memory deficits *
behavioral issues * toileting trouble * and other common
complications of Alzheimer disease. The evidenced-based, practical
interventions and strategies in The Busy Caregiver's Guide will
help you stay emotionally, mentally, and physically involved in
your loved one's life. Special dedicated worksheets help you
practice the skills and keep track of what is working. You'll also
read stories about other caregivers who face the same struggles.
