Dementia can be a distressing condition, for the sufferer, and for
families and other carers. Management of dementia is never easy,
and involves facing some unpleasant problems and difficult choices.
The right approach and expertise can minimise the unpleasantness
and make dementia manageable, while inexperienced or inexpert
management has the potential to cause unnecessary distress and
disability, mis-directed resources, frustrated care staff, unduly
long periods spent in hospital and premature care home placement.
Dementia Care is a practical manual for health and sociacare
professionals in their encounters with people with dementia. It
covers a wide range of information in a short, easily-accessible
handbook format and broadly follows the journey of a person with
dementia from first presentation to health or social services,
through problems and their management, to the final stages of the
illness. The book is rooted in the extensive experience of the
authors in managing dementia in the community, in hospital and care
homes and hopes to make the necessary expertise available and
accessible in a form that will be useful to the whole range of
medical, health and social care staff looking after people with
dementia and their families.
