The Essential Guide to Dementia Caregiving

Among dementia books for caregivers, this is Dementia Caregiving 911. It's not just a book written from a medical perspective of someone who has studied in books (although the author does have licensed medical credentials), nor is this an our story book. Rather it is a highly practical handbook written by one dementia caregiver who has served more than 10 years in the trenches helping you, another caregiver.

This is a book about the essentials of what you need to know. Just the facts, ma'am, just the facts. The goal is to give you the critical knowledge you need to navigate this journey and very practical tips to help you along the way. Things such as

  • Why is it that my loved one suddenly seems to snap out of their dementia when others are around?
  • Where is the most important place to look for a loved one, besides the obvious, if they start wandering? (Because it is sadly fatal.)
  • What is the most important trait as a caregiver I need to have for sustainability?
  • What is the one key component that make a good day bad or a bad day good that is something I can actually change?
  • What is the difference between the medical therapies and how do they work?
  • Why does my loved one see multiples of me?
  • What is some caregiver equipment worth buying that will be helpful?
  • What is sundowning and what can I do that can help?
Being a dementia caregiver is an unpredictable journey that few who have not traveled down that road truly understand. But here you will receive tips from someone who has been there is doing that.
