Sách Wellbeing in Dementia An Occupational Approach for Therapists and Carers 2nd Edition (Sách keo gáy, bìa mềm)
The authors, specialists in the UK, draw on
developmental theory to propose a model of practice specifically for
dementia care. The number of people who suffer from dementia is
increasing and in consequence the problems it presents are affecting a
growing number of therapists and carers. Many of these problems are
peculiar to dementia and the models of care used with other client
groups have proved inadequate when dealing with the provision of quality
of care to people who have dementia. This revised edition contains a
new opening chapter which brings our understanding of dementia
up-to-date. The book looks at the relationship between occupation,
wellbeing and dementia and examines the critical role of the carer in
developing therapeutic interventions.Proposes a realistic model of
practice for dementia care which centres on the unique occupational
potential of the person with dementia.Offers positive strategies to
improve wellbeing.Current information on assessment tools.Written by
therapists with extensive experience in working with this client group.
