Written by experts who have extensive experience providing dementia care, this book provides direction to health care agencies, particularly long-term care agencies, and health care providers on ways to enhance care given to people with late-stage dementia. Although people with mid-stage dementia are served by special care units in long-term care facilities, as these residents deteriorate, they are transferred into a general nursing home unit. These nursing homes are not equipped to deal with the palliative needs of late-stage dementia care. This book addresses those needs.
