Jean Robinson's personal experiences as an Alzheimer's caregiver led her to write this book, particularly to help other caregivers adjust in the early years of their new experience. Because Alzheimer's care has usually been learned by word of mouth from other caregivers and people who have worked in facilities, the author recognized that this guide could shorten the learning curve, particularly for at-home care. As you read, you will find: *Alzheimer's warning signs, evaluations and treatments *What to do if you have Alzheimer's disease *Menu, Nutritional Analysis *Home safety tips *Personal care information *Activities ideas *Challenging behavior coping suggestions *Alzheimer's stages guide *Alzheimer's related dementias *Help in caring for a loved one that has Alzheimer's *Caring for caregiver needs *Healthful eating guides *Physical activity/exercise agendas *Helpers sources, communication *Medication for Alzheimer's *Legal and financial information *Researchers' recommendations for protecting your memory and brain As a dietitian, the author emphasizes healthful eating (menus and guides are included) as an important aspect in maintaining physical and emotional health. You will learn what is likely to happen and why, and what will help you to cope and make Alzheimer's care a bit easier, better and less stressful.
