Personalisation and Dementia : A Guide for Person-Centred Practice, Paperback / softback Book

Personalisation and Dementia : A Guide for Person-Centred Practice Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Personalisation builds on person-centred care to focus on how people with dementia can have more choice and control over decisions affecting them, and be supported to be part of their communities. This practical guide explains how to deliver personalised services and support for people with dementia through simple, evidence-based person-centred practices.

The authors clearly explain personalisation and current person-centred thinking and practice, providing many vivid examples of how it has been achieved in community as well as residential care settings.

They guide the reader through using a range of person-centred practices.

Strategies for ensuring a good match between the person with dementia and the staff and volunteers supporting them are also described.

In the final chapter, the reader is introduced to Progress for Providers, a photocopiable tool for tracking progress in delivering appropriate personalised support for people with dementia living in care homes. This is essential reading for dementia care practitioners and managers, as well as social and health care workers, community workers and students.
