Autorenporträt
Keith Galas is the executive director of a Memory Care community that has been referred to as the "Gold Standard" of Memory Care in Atlanta, Georgia. With a 20-year career of improving elder life, he has a special gift for knowing what caregivers are going through and how to guide them through all aspects of parental dementia. He has emphasized the intrinsic value of each of his residents in the training of his care team, fully believing that "People are valuable at every stage of life. I feel privileged to partner with families to help Mom live in a dignified manner." In Parental Dementia: A Guide Through All the Difficult Questions, he shares stories of his experiences caring for those with dementia. He addresses many of the questions that plague caregiving children and will help them find their way through the maze of options that exist in the world of parental dementia care. Halle Eskew shares personal experiences from her decade-long journey of caring for her parents who both confronted Alzheimer's. Her detailed stories offer readers practical ideas from the trenches--from how to keep Mom safe, how to deal with giving up the car keys, and how to help out with managing finances--while offering prime ways to build treasured memories in the midst of loss. With firsthand experience in parental care at home, Halle provides valuable insights into what you should expect when it's time to move Mom from home care to an assisted living or memory care community. Halle draws from a long family history of dementia that has included two generations on both sides. "I was a teenager when I first witnessed the signs of dementia in my grandmother. Years later, Alzheimer's entered our lives in a highly personal way when my father was diagnosed with dementia at age 76." This book will help you from the first day you realize Mom is struggling with dementia.
