Publisher's Summary

Take charge of caregiving: conquer daily challenges, communicate effectively, and transform behavioral changes with 9 actionable steps.

No one prepares you for dementia, but no one prepares your loved one, either. The world has over 55 million dementia patients, which only increases annually. And not a single one of them was prepared.

But you don't have to go into this journey completely blind. Let this book be your guide in becoming the best caregiver possible.

Inside, you'll discover:

  • 9 steps caregivers need to ensure their loved ones or patients have an improved quality of life while balancing their own mental health and needs
  • The #1 step caregivers must follow to ensure every document is ready and how to manage the inevitable family feuds that follow
  • The brain-personality-behavior loop and how to use the DICE model to embrace the changes and help your loved one through each change
  • How to prepare an environment to protect your loved one from any harm with a comprehensive to-do list for bathrooms, kitchens, bedrooms, and the outdoors
  • The secrets to a new form of communication needed in each major stage of dementia and what you should avoid saying to your loved one
  • A complete guide to the 17 most common medical and mental health complications and how you can address each one at home while knowing when to seek help
  • How to manage the 6 most essential daily struggles in dementia, including hygiene, nutrition, wandering off, recreation, and physical activity

And much more.

Become the informed, thoughtful, and realistic caregiver your loved one needs and deserves.

Manage your loved one’s dementia while balancing work and life, using easy, practical steps. Buy this audiobook now.
