When Someone You Love Has Dementia is a new kind of caregiving book. It's not about the usual techniques, but about how to manage on-going stress and grief. The book is for caregivers, family members, friends, neighbors as well as educators and professionals, anyone touched by the epidemic of dementia. Dr. Boss helps caregivers find hope in "ambiguous loss" having a loved one both here and not here, physically present but psychologically absent. Outlines seven guidelines to stay resilient while caring for someone who has dementia. Discusses the meaning of relationships with individuals who are cognitively impaired and no longer as they used to be. Offers approaches to understand and cope with the emotional strain of care-giving. Boss's book builds on research and clinical experience, yet the material is presented as a conversation. She shows you a way to embrace rather than resist the ambiguity in your relationship with someone who has dementia"--Provided by publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Nonfiction 616.83 Bo Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 616.83 Bo Checked In Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Nonfiction 616.83 Bo Checked In Add Copy to MyList Salt Lake-Moanalua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 616.83 Bo Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wahiawa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 616.83 Bo Checked In Add Copy to MyList
