Looking Through the Window at Dementia: The Caregiver's Handbook to Understanding Dementia - Paperback

by Laura Banner (Author)

Over 16 million Americans are caring for a loved one suffering from Alzheimer's or some other form of dementia. These volunteer caregivers are largely on their own when it comes to knowing how to care for their loved one safely and effectively. They are lacking when it comes to the resources and information they need to help their loved one retain their dignity as their memory and ability to care for themselves fades away. Until now. "Looking Through the Window of Dementia" is the caregiver's guide to addressing and dealing with the medical, emotional, and day to day needs of someone with dementia. From medication and mobility issues to the legalities and logistics of living arrangements, "Looking Through the Window of Dementia" covers it all.
