Описание: Validation is a successful way of communicating with older adults with Alzheimer’s-type dementia and responding to their challenging behaviors. The Validation method helps reduce stress, enhance dignity, and increase happiness for both the elder and the caregiver. Since its inception in 1989, Validation has helped thousands of professional and family caregivers improve their relationships with residents and loved ones with dementia by acknowledging older adults’ expressed feelings rather than focusing on disorientation and confusion.
Professionals will learn how to:
Build relationships with residents based on empathy and compassion
Understand and deal with challenging behaviors
Interpret nonverbal cues to promote better communication
Implement Validation in your own care setting through the experiences shared by Authorized Validation Organizations around the world
The Validation method is easy to learn, and positive results can be seen in both residents and caregivers.
Residents express less anger and anxiety, decreasing the need for chemical and physical restraints.
Residents communicate more freely and more often. Residents often move better and experience an improved sense of self-worth.
Staff members express a greater sense of fulfillment at work and feel better prepared for handling difficult situations.
Families visit more often.
The Validation Breakthrough is an essential resource for professionals in all settings serving adults who may be confused and disoriented, including assisted living facilities, skilled nursing facilities, hospice, home health care, adult day services, and family care settings.

Описание: Dementia is on the rise around the world, and health organizations in Canada, the United States, and New Zealand are responding to the urgent need – voiced by communities and practitioners – for guidance on how best to address memory loss in Indigenous communities. This innovative volume responds to the call by bringing together, for the first time, studies and Indigenous teaching stories that address three key areas of concern: prevalence, causes, and public discourse; Indigenous perspectives on care and prevention; and culturally safe application of research to Elder care. Collectively, the contributors demonstrate that care must be grounded in collaborative research informed by Indigenous knowledge and worldviews.
Описание: The beloved best seller has been revised and expanded for the fifth edition.Jolene Brackey has a vision: that we will soon look beyond the challenges of Alzheimer's disease to focus more of our energies on creating moments of joy. When people have short-term memory loss, their lives are made up of moments. We are not able to create perfectly wonderful days for people with dementia or Alzheimer’s, but we can create perfectly wonderful moments, moments that put a smile on their faces and a twinkle in their eyes. Five minutes later, they will not remember what we did or said, but the feeling that we left them with will linger. The new edition of Creating Moments of Joy is filled with more practical advice sprinkled with hope, encouragement, new stories, and generous helpings of humor. In this volume, Brackey reveals that our greatest teacher is having cared for and loved someone with Alzheimer’s and that often what we have most to learn about is ourselves.
