This book takes the practical approaches and tools provided in
'Living a Good Life with Dementia' and applies them to the family
context to help families support a loved one with dementia. A
Family Guide to Living Well with Dementia aims to help families and
carers gain knowledge and insight to be able to support the person
with dementia to live life as they wish. It elaborates on the
concept of Self-Directed Support and Care for people living with
dementia and links the various Person Centred approaches to
dementia care with Person Centred Planning and Community based
approaches. This easy-to-follow and accessible guide contains
information that is intended to support people to plan for how they
want to live their life, receive their care, and for end-of-life
planning. Also included in this book is information about people's
rights within the health and social care legislation, insight into
behaviour and methods of communication as well as the options
available to people in way of support, paid and community-based.
The concept of the Dementia Care Triad (people living with
dementia, unpaid carers and professional carers) is explored and
developed further to include the layer of community. Often people
who have been diagnosed with dementia and their families report
feeling lost and not sure what to do apart from learning to adapt
and find a way to do their best in what can often be difficult
circumstances. This book provides easy, engaging, and practical
content for things to consider and conversations to have so as to
be able to provide the best care and support on a basis of sound
understanding from everyone involved.
