H.O.P.E. for the Alzheimer's Journey

Description

"A useful, step-by-step guide for anyone new to caring for those with Alzheimer's." -Library Journal H.O.P.E. for the Alzheimer's Journey equips Alzheimer's caregivers with knowledge, tools, and advice for their difficult road ahead. Author Carol B. Amos incorporates her own experience-including her family's email correspondence illustrating how they coped during this particular challenge. Amos also introduces The Caregiving Principle: a simple approach that provides a deeper understanding of a person with Alzheimer's disease and a framework for the caregiver's role. She provides examples of how The Caregiving Principle helped her connect with her mother. H.O.P.E. for the Alzheimer's Journey encourages caregivers to take care for themselves and provides inspiration for a less stressful, more rewarding journey.
