Experience has shown that dealing with difficult behaviors in a reactionary or piecemeal fashion doesn't work. , Management of Challenging Behaviors in Dementia establishes a new standard for all care settings. It presents a cohesive care philosophy that describes proven ways to reduce or eliminate challenging behaviors by addressing their underlying causes within four critical areas: caregiving practices physical environment social environment medical treatment Although medical and drug treatments are thoroughly covered, the effectiveness of nonpharmacological approaches is stressed and illustrated by case reports. Case studies highlight the importance of person-centered care by demonstrating how variable individual reactions can be to the disease process and to therapeutic interventions. Armed with the knowledge found here about how to manage challenging behaviors successfully, professional caregivers can lighten their workloads while improving the quality of life for the older adults in their care. / Contents Introduction Chapter 1 Dementia and Personality Chapter 2 Functional Impairment Chapter 3 Mood Disorders Chapter 4 Delusions and Hallucinations Chapter 5 Dependence in Activities of Daily Living Chapter 6 Inability to Initiate Meaningful Activities Chapter 7 Anxiety Chapter 8 Spatial Disorientation Chapter 9 Resistiveness to Care Chapter 10 Food Refusal Chapter 11 Insomnia Chapter 12 Apathy and Agitation Chapter 13 Elopement and Interference with Others Glossary Index.
