Life Story Work with People with Dementia : Ordinary Lives, Extraordinary People Paperback / softback

Edited by Polly Kaiser, Ruth Eley

Paperback / softback

Description

Introducing life story work, a way for people with dementia to connect with their relatives, carers and the professionals working with them.

This evidence-based book explains the many benefits of life story work, with practical guidance for introducing it in a variety of settings. The authors show how life story work can empower people with dementia to inform care practitioners and family members what care and support they may need now and in the future, by taking into account their past and their future wishes and aspirations.

The book includes practical information on how to get started, ethical considerations such as consent and confidentiality, and considers issues of diversity and how to address them.

The voices of practitioners, researchers and family carers sit alongside those of people living with dementia to present a wide-range of perspectives on life story work.
