Are you confused by the many options available for dementia care? Are you frustrated by broken promises and poor care? You are not alone. Using examples from actual experiences of families and those in long-term care settings, The Insider's Guide to Dementia Care strives to inform consumers about the growing crisis of dementia care in assisted living. The authors provide families with the knowledge and resources they need to stand up for the rights of their loved ones: the right to be treated with dignity and the right to be cared for by properly trained professionals. More importantly, the book serves to encourage and motivate readers to take direct action toward the goal of improved care.
