Caring for a person suffering from dementia is very challenging. Due to constant worry and stress, the routine care for them becomes a heavy burden for the family and loved ones. How can you help someone who doesn't understand what's happening, feels confused, and resists your help? Brent Forrester and Thomas Harrison wrote a book for those who want to improve the life of a loved one without sacrificing their own.
Every case of dementia is unique, and every situation in which you have to care for someone with dementia is also unique. Taking care of a parent in this condition is completely different from caring for someone with any other "normal" illness.
The authors explain how to recognize the signs of this incurable disease, how it progresses at each stage, and what to prepare for in advance. In the book, you will find practical recommendations to overcome household, medical, and psychological problems related to daily care for a person with dementia. You will learn how to communicate better with your loved one, ensure their safety and comfort, deal with challenging behavior, and maintain your mental health.
The goal of this book is to help you reassess your role in caring for your parent, reduce stress levels, become healthier and happier, and surround your loved one with genuine care.
