With humor and a down-to-earth style, this book is easy to read and contains invaluable tips for all caregivers! • Private care is too costly for many. The result is caring for their elderly loved ones at home. Often, these caregivers are still working full-time and taking care of other family and professional responsibilities. Even for someone who is retired, adding the role of caregiver for an elderly loved one is often more challenging than anyone ever anticipates. • Based on experience and research, this book provides caregivers quick ideas to help resolve some common problems. As a college professor with experience working in an adult psychiatric unit, Lisa Santiago shares her inspiration for writing this book: "I saw many individuals whose mental illnesses hindered their abilities to function in everyday life and I became familiar with the systems put in place to help them. In addition to that, I keep up with advances in brain and memory research in order to share this with my students. All of this knowledge related to the brain and mental illnesses led me to believe that I was fully prepared to easily care for my grandma as Alzheimer's tried to take her further away. It didn't take long for me to learn that I was wrong! I needed more options. I needed quick and simple solutions. I had to combine all I witnessed, all I studied, and all of my ingenuity in order to ensure physical, mental, and emotional health for both of us. When colleagues, friends, and friends of friends began calling me for help with their loved ones, I shared my tips. They said I should write a book to help everyone in the world - so I did, and I hope it makes life happier for everyone who gives so much without even thinking about it. It's a gift for all caregivers." WHAT YOU WILL FIND IN THIS BOOK: • Easy tips that you can use quickly - no need to sit and read for hours! • Cheap and easy ways to keep your home clean and safe. • Systems to minimize memory losses. • Easy to understand explanations of current research findings related to the brain and memory. • Simple ideas to add much-needed exercise and movement to the day - while seated! • Learning that giving control means gaining control. • Reasons to smile and laugh instead of cry. • And so much more… Alzheimer's: Quick Tips for Caregivers, Vol. I: Living with a Wild Raccoon is a vital resource for anyone caring for those suffering from Alzheimer's or dementia.
