Living Normally with Dementia - One Care Home's Story and How to Make it Yours (Paperback)

Welcome to Dagmarsminde, an innovative nursing home in Denmark with a remarkable and life-affirming approach to dementia care. The founder and staff of this replicable model strive to help persons with dementia enjoy a rich, normal-feeling life. Following person-centered practices, daily life includes routines focused on good nutrition, contact with nature, healthy physical activities, and as much independence in activities of daily living as possible. The needs and progress of each resident are paramount. The approach followed at Dagmarsminde is described from the time a new resident arrives at the home until the person has died, contrasting it with the new standard practices of nursing home care and challenging readers to consider new, more satisfying ways of working with people living with dementia.
