Guidelines are rooted in the theory of retrogenesis in dementia--that those with the condition regress in stages toward infancy--as well as knowledge of associated brain damage. The objective is to meet patients where they are developmentally to best be able to address the tasks of their daily lives, from eating and toileting to preventing falls and wandering. This accessible information gives readers a platform for creating strategies that are respectful, sensitive, and tailored to individual needs, thus avoiding problems that result when care is ineffective or counterproductive. Featured in the coverage: Abilities and disabilities during the different stages of Alzheimer's disease. Strategies for keeping the patient's finances safe. Pain in those with dementia, and why it is frequently ignored. "Help! I've lost my mother and can't find her!" Sexuality and intimacy in persons with dementia. Instructive vignettes of successful caring interventions. Given the projected numbers of individuals expected to develop dementing conditions, Care Giving for Alzheimer?s Disease will find immediate interest among clinical psychologists, health psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and primary care physicians. 000726139 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed March 24, 2015). 000726139 650_0 $$aAlzheimer's disease$$xPatients$$xCare. 000726139 7001_ $$aVanderhorst, Katherine Johnson,$$eauthor. 000726139 7001_ $$aKoenig, Harold G.$$q(Harold George),$$d1951-$$eauthor. 000726139 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9781493924066 000726139 852__ $$bebk 000726139 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-1-4939-2407-3$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000726139 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:726139$$pGLOBAL_SET 000726139 980__ $$aEBOOK 000726139 980__ $$aBIB 000726139 982__ $$aEbook 000726139 983__ $$aOnline 000726139 994__ $$a92$$bISE
