DEMENTIA RECONSIDERED CL PDF

What a marvelous help for those of us struggling with living with dementia in a loved one. This book gave me emotional support to continue working with what is still functioning with my husband and down to earth tips. I am grateful for such insightful knowledge.
By Sandra E. Ranchoff
Good book--but more for those who are policy makers or have the power to design/staff Alzheimer's facilities. In a way, the book is depressing for care givers of Alzheimer's patients, as the facilities described as more ideal for "the person[dementia patient] coming first" really don't exist.

This book probably should be read by lawmakers, policymakers, and those who run facilities that care for dementia patients. If it could make a difference in their care, that would be wonderful. The current business, for-profit model is not exactly caring nor in the best interests of patients or their loved ones.

It's an academic book--research based and not self-help or "how to" book for caregivers, but it is an important book.
By Carolyn Schneider
