| Publisher Description: It can be terrifying to witness a loved one's cognitive decline. But for millions of families around the world, that fear becomes reality year after year. Researchers estimate that more than 150 million people around the world could be living with dementia by 2050. While there is currently no known cure for dementia and Other Dementias combines the latest research on preventive methods, current treatment options, and advice for living well with dementia, to help those affected by the disease. Now this guide features the latest information on the causes of dementia, managing the early stages of dementia, the prevention of dementia, and finding appropriate living arrangements for the person who has dementia when home care is no longer an option. You'll learn: The basic facts about dementia. How to deal with problems arising in daily care-meals, exercise, personal hygiene, and safety. How to cope with an impaired person's false ideas, suspicion, anger, and other mood problems. How to get outside help from support groups, friends, and agencies. Financial and legal issues you must address |
