A new, practical approach to interacting with people suffering from dementia. The practical handbook advocates for empathizing with the experiences of individuals with dementia to better understand their actions. Numerous examples illustrate how this neuropsychological approach is applied by caregivers in elderly and long-term care settings. It encourages and empowers caregivers to reflect on and understand their own positive experiences, thereby changing their interactions with confused individuals. The second edition includes an excursion on the significance of neuroscience for dementia care and the model of compensatory interaction. The author draws behavioral and neurophysiological parallels between individuals with dementia and newborns, describing similarities in the reactions of caregivers and mothers. The book offers valuable insights for practice and is aimed at readers interested in this field.
