Alzheimer's is a particularly difficult disease to deal with because of its many phases, and the hardships it imposes on the patient and the patient's caregivers.
Doctors can prescribe medication.
Therapists can help in the rehabilitation process. However, neither doctors nor therapists have the knowledge to aid in the one area in which most chronically ill patients wish to stay - their home. This unique book is divided into two sections to provide the most thorough coverage available. Section One deals with interior and exterior spaces individually, providing key information on how to ensure that the Alzheimer's patient will be safe and secure. Section Two gives a detailed list of potential problems related to Alzheimer's and practical information on how to cope with those problems in the home setting.
