Requests:  0 Summary:  Becoming a caregiver for someone with Alzheimer's disease or another neurocognitive disorder can be an unexpected, undesirable, underappreciated--and yet noble--role. It is heartbreaking to watch someone lose the very cognitive capacities that once helped to define them as a person. But because of the nature of these disorders, the only way to become an effective caregiver and cope with the role's many daily challenges is to become well-informed about the disease. With the right information, resources and tips on caregiving and working with professionals, you can become your own expert at both caring for your charge and taking care of yourself. In these pages, the author guides readers to a better understanding of the changes their loved one may be going through and helps them tap into the various resources available to them as they embark on an uncertain caregiving journey.--Publisher description.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Aiea Public Library Adult Nonfiction 616.83 Ag Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hanapepe Public Library Adult Nonfiction 616.83 Ag Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 616.83 Ag Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 616.83 Agronin Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 616.83 Ag Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 616.83 Ag Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 616.83 Ag Checked In Add Copy to MyList Lanai P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 616.83 Ag Checked In Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 616.83 Ag Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 616.83 Ag Checked In Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
