Dementia Care: A Practical Manual

This care manual offers an holistic approach to care for people with dementia. It is written as a practical manual for health and social care professionals working in multi-disciplinary teams with people who have this debilitating neurodegenerative illness. It is also highly relevant to those in non-mental health settings as the population ages and increasing numbers of people with dementia present with other medical conditions alongside their mental health problems. This manual covers a wide range of information in a short, easily accessible handbook format. It follows the pathway of dementia, from first presentation through to final stages of the illness.
