Description

Providing dementia care is profoundly stressful for families and caregivers. People with dementia or Alzheimer’s experience emotional distress, which leads to behavioral complications and the need for institutional care. However, if families and caregivers are able to identify the emotional needs caused by dementia and understand which skills are lost and which remain, they can lower the behavioral complications and their own stress.

As the founder of the Dementia & Alzheimer’s Wellbeing Network® (DAWN), Judy Cornish approaches dementia care with clear and empathetic methods that improve the lives not only of the individuals with dementia but also of those caring for them. 

Dementia and Alzheimer’s are very personal and individual experiences - they vary from person to person. However, Cornish has identified a pattern in the abilities and disabilities of people living with dementia. Based on her findings, Cornish was able to develop methods for caregivers to ease emotional distress, which can quickly and safely resolve behavioral complications.

Though people with dementia lose a sense of self, they are still the same person you always loved. Judy Cornish understands this. The Dementia Handbook: How to Provide Dementia Care at Home is the supportive guide you’ve been looking for as you walk alongside your loved one on this difficult - but potentially rewarding - new path.

Accurate description

Having cared for my mother full-time for 2 1/2 years prior to her moving to long-term care, Judy Cornish describes exactly what needs to happen when caring for a person with demential. Unfortunately once my mother entered long-term care it was a complete disaster from that point on since I was not power of attorney and my brother Marc chose to have my mother drugged with antipsychotic medication causing her to not be able to eat talk move smile or laugh. I advocated for my mother but was gaslighted buy the stuff and blocked by my youngest brother and supported by two of my other brothers for the abuse and neglect that goes on in long-term homes. I don’t wish to use the word care in the description because there is no care. There is lack of staff, lack of training and unreported accounts of severe address drug reactions to those drugs with antipsychotic medication. I have become an advocate and I will continue to defend the rights of seniors with dementia until the day I die.

Listen with love...

I found this very informative and liked the use of the examples of 'what to say' when speaking to our loved ones. I particularly enjoyed the soothing sound of the narrators voice as well. Well done and I have shared this title with my family members as well, so we can all conform to the same practice methods used here.
