Written by two caregivers with 55 years of experience, the book addresses the challenges caregivers face dealing with the behaviours of those they are caring for.
Through the use of diagrams, charts, examples and stories the book will help caregivers to understand what their loved ones are going through and what they, as caregivers, are going through as well. Although no one has all the answers to the puzzle of Alzheimer's yet, this book will help those living with the disease and the people caring for them to understand and give better care.
The Alzheimer's Caregiving Puzzle shows:
The basic concepts of Alzheimer's Disease and its progression across the brain
What loved ones need as the disease progresses
Outlines three caregiving styles
Charts caregiving stages
Five healthy caregiving practises
How to give dignified, appropriate and safe care
How to be compassionate with others and forgiving of one's self
