Download or read book Mom's Ok, She Just Forgets written by Evelyn D. Mclay and published by Prometheus Books. This book was released on 2010-03-05 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: - "Dad only drives to the grocery store." - "A support group? I don''t need one." - "My husband is not ready for day care." - "Nursing home placement? Never!" These and similar expressions of denial are often heard in families struggling with the difficult challenges of Alzheimer''s or dementia in a loved one. Denial may seem to be an acceptable coping mechanism when faced with a disease that has no cure. But in fact the failure to accept reality can work against the welfare of the person suffering from a disease that causes dementia, making a bad situation worse for the whole family. In this reassuring and very helpful handbook for families, experienced caregivers Evelyn D. McLay and Ellen P. Young suggest various behaviors, tools, and techniques for moving beyond denial. Real people who have faced the many problems brought about by Alzheimer''s speak out, with hope, from these pages. They share their journeys from denial to loving action and an improved attitude that helps them deal with their personal plights. Separate chapters address the issues of caregiver burnout, developing communication skills, challenging behaviors that "push your buttons," when to remove driving privileges, day care for the elderly, deciding on long-term care, and the need for acceptance. Without minimizing the daunting challenges of Alzheimer''s and dementia, the authors stress the importance of remaining positive and appreciating the moment while acting in the best interests of loved ones.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2008 AJN Book of the Year Winner! Like its popular predecessor, the new edition of Bathing Without a Battle presents an individualized, problem-solving approach to bathing and personal care of individuals with dementia. On the basis of extensive original research and clinical experience, the editors have developed strategies and techniques that work in both institution and home settings. Their approach is also appropriate for caregiving activities other than bathing, such as morning and evening care, and for frail elders not suffering from dementia. For this second edition, the authors have included historical material on bathing and substantially updated the section on special concerns, including: Pain Skin care Determining the appropriate level of assistance Transfers The environment An enhanced final section addresses ways to support caregivers by increasing their understanding of the care recipient's needs and their knowledge of interventions to improve care and comfort. It also emphasizes self-care and system-level changes to promote person-directed care. Several chapters include specific insights and wisdom from direct caregivers.
