Beschreibung:
Jackie Pool is a UK leading specialist in dementia care who was awarded the National Dementia Care Award 2011 for Best Dementia Care Personality. She is the Director of Memory Care for Sunrise Senior Living.
This important new book sets out practical guidance for people with dementia, their families and carers. Jackie Pool challenges the misconception that a dementia diagnosis must represent the start of a downward spiral for the one diagnosed, and shows how symptoms of dementia can be reduced through therapeutic cognitive rehabilitation, as demonstrated by a recent study at the University of Exeter.Covering topics such as nutrition, stress, communication, sleep and cognitive rehabilitation techniques, it provides all the tools and information necessary to build a personalised and flexible self-care plan which will improve and sustain quality of life. By clearing away the myths and stigma surrounding dementia, this book creates room for cooperation, creativity and hope.
