Acerca de esta escucha
When Someone You Know Is Living in a Dementia Care Community, a best-selling book in the caregiving and dementia market, is now an audiobook! A guide to help family and friends navigate the emotional and practical challenges they face when someone they love is living in community care.
Life changes dramatically for the entire family when the decision is made to move a person who has dementia from home to community care. Rachael Wonderlin - a gerontologist, dementia care expert, and popular dementia care blogger - helps caregivers cope with the difficult behaviors, emotions, and anxieties that both they and their loved one may experience.
Writing from her own practice and drawing on the latest research in gerontology and dementia, Wonderlin explains the different kinds of dementia, details the wide range of care communities available for people who have dementia, and speaks empathetically to the worry and guilt many families feel.
"Do not let anyone make you feel like you have taken the 'easy way out' by choosing a dementia care community," she writes. "You are still going to deal with a lot of challenging behaviors, concerns, and questions regarding your loved one's care."
When Someone You Know Is Living in a Dementia Care Community is an accessible guide offering answers to such questions as:
- How do I choose a place for my loved one to live?
- How do I communicate with my loved one living with dementia?
- What can I find out by visiting a dementia care community?
- What do I do if my loved one asks about going home?
- How can I improve the quality of my visits?
- What is the best way to handle conflict between residents, or between the resident and staff?
- What do I do if my loved one starts a romantic relationship with another resident?
An indispensable book for family members and friends of people with dementia, When Someone You Know is Living in a Dementia Care Community touches the heart while explaining how to make a difficult situation better.

Nearly half of US citizens over the age of 85 are suffering from some kind of dementia and require care. Loving Someone Who Has Dementia is a new kind of caregiving book. It's not about the usual techniques, but about how to manage on-going stress and grief. The book is for caregivers, family members, friends, and neighbors, as well as educators and professionals - anyone touched by the epidemic of dementia. Dr. Boss helps caregivers find hope in "ambiguous loss" - having a loved one both here and not here, physically present but psychologically absent.

Dr. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross created her classic seminal work, On Death and Dying, to offer us a new perspective on the terminally ill. It is not a psychoanalytic study, nor is it a "how-to" manual for managing death. Rather, it refocuses on the patient as a human being and a teacher, in the hope that we will learn from him or her about the final stages of life.

Nearly five million families deal with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia on a daily basis. They do this with little training, and often, only their good intentions guide them. When Reasoning No Longer Works is the training manual these family caregivers have been searching for. Authored by a gerontologist with more than 20 years of experience, this audiobook gives the listener an easy-to-understand view of what dementia does to the brain, how it is diagnosed, and most importantly, how to deal with its effects.

Family is the one thing you can rely on when the chips are down and you need help. When so-called friends and colleagues desert you in your hour of need, it is family that will likely be there to help you put the pieces back together again. Maintaining a close and loving relationship with your family members is crucial for so many reasons, so it’s vitally important that you work on it as hard as possible. This book, The Eternal Pain, gives a deep insight into why our families are so important to us and how we can work to keep those strong bonds and make them even stronger.

On Death and Dying began as a theoretical book, an interdisciplinary study of our fear of death and our inevitable acceptance of it. It introduced the world to the now-famous five stages: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. On Grief and Grieving applies these stages to the process of grieving and weaves together theory, inspiration, and practical advice, all based on Kübler-Ross' and Kessler's professional and personal experiences.

Do you sometimes feel as if you're just going through the motions in life? Are you good at looking and acting as if you're fine, but secretly feel lonely and disconnected? If so, you are not alone. The world is full of people who have an innate sense that something is wrong with them - who feel they live on the outside looking in, but have no explanation for this feeling and no way to put it into words.

If you are the parent of a toddler or preschooler, chances are you know a thing or two about tantrums. While those epic meltdowns can certainly be part of "normal" toddler behavior, they are still maddening, stressful, and exhausting - for everyone involved. What can you do to keep your cool and help your child calm down? Rebecca Schrag Hershberg, child psychologist and mother of two, has a unique understanding of both the science behind tantrums and what works in the heat of the moment to nip blowups in the bud.

Very enjoyable and informative listen
I have been a fan of Rachal's previous text and I enjoyed this book so much I wanted to hear the book read by Rachael herself. Rachael's stories are even easier to relate to when she reads them and her advice she gives are things you can act on. Makes for a great listen in the car or on a plane too.
