- Synopsis
- Back Cover: "A Loving Approach to Dementia Care offers compassionate advice on overcoming practical and emotional obstacles to maintaining meaningful relationships with loved ones who have dementia and memory loss. Laura Wayman's program of care emphasizes communication, affirmative response, and empowerment--transforming the caregiving process from a burden into a fulfilling journey. Her true stories of caregiving illustrate the principles of this loving approach, giving readers essential tools for connecting with people who have dementia. In this thoroughly revised edition, dementia care consultant Wayman adds fresh caregiving insights and new information about the dangers of denying the onset of cognitive problems. Also new to this edition is Wayman's ‘Dementia-Aware Guide to Caregiving’--a quick reference tool for advice on how to respond to specific difficult behaviors."
