Communication And The Care Of People With Dementia

This book argues that communication is at the heart of all approaches to dementia care, and is an in-depth exploration of ways of establishing and developing communication with people with dementia. It examines both the nature of dementia as a condition and the subjective experience of those affected. The authors consider in detail how communication between people with dementia and those who care for them changes, and how it can be maintained and enhanced. They include a significant amount of material quoted from people with dementia, and suggest ways of interpreting their words and actions. We learn about what it might be like to have dementia, and what sort of help is needed by people in this situation. Throughout the book the authors address the ethical issues and the implications for practice. 
Communication and the Care of People with Dementia is a key resource for students and professionals in health and social care work, including those in such fields as social work, nursing, occupational therapy, speech therapy, physiotherapy, clinical psychology, geriatric medicine, and the management of services.

In the English village of Middleton, the rector's daughter Sophy keeps a shameful secret—she's a novelist. Sophy needs inspiration for her next book and it arrives in the form of her rakish cousin, Lord Hart. She writes him into her story, and unwittingly, her heart. He too is surprised to fall for his poor and proper cousin, but she can't be a wife. No man would tolerate her novel writing, especially not one who scorns the idea that a woman could write a book worth reading. However, determined to win her, Lord Hart resorts to devious means. But Sophy could have told him that trickery is no recipe for success in love!
