Summary
A caregiver’s roadmap that delivers deep insights and practical solutions. Essential Strategies for the Dementia Caregiver offers a fresh and practical approach to the challenges faced by wives, husbands, and adult children who care for loved ones with dementia. Using the four D’s of Dementia care–detach, document, diffuse, distract–caregivers can find solutions for behaviors ranging from shadowing to wandering and medication refusal.
The PACE model emphasizes the importance of prioritizing the caregiver’s well-being while navigating the dementia journey:
P = Permission for trial and error.
A = Acknowledge their reality.
C = Compassionate care.
E = Empower yourself.
