  • Wellbeing in Dementia

    An Occupational Approach for Therapists and Carers
    • 2nd Edition
    • June 27, 2008
    • Tessa Perrin + 2 more
    • English
    The authors, specialists in the UK, draw on developmental theory to propose a model of practice specifically for dementia care. The number of people who suffer from dementia is increasing and in consequence the problems it presents are affecting a growing number of therapists and carers. Many of these problems are peculiar to dementia and the models of care used with other client groups have proved inadequate when dealing with the provision of quality of care to people who have dementia. This revised edition contains a new opening chapter which brings our understanding of dementia up-to-date. The book looks at the relationship between occupation, wellbeing and dementia and examines the critical role of the carer in developing therapeutic interventions.

    • French
    Non agressive, économique et personnalisée, l'homéopathie a d'une part un succès croissant auprès des patients et permet d'autre part aux médecins de diversifier leur arsenal thérapeutique. Les patients souhaitant de plus en plus être soignés d'une manière globale et naturelle, cet outil au concept novateur permettra à tout praticien, quel que soit son niveau en homéopathie, de répondre de manière efficace à cette demande. Chaque médecin y trouvera des ordonnances de première intention, de manière justifiée et ouverte. Justifiée parce que chaque prescription est traitée en tenant compte des recommandations médicales et en expliquant la méthode homéopathique en vue de trouver le remède similaire. Ouverte, enfin, parce que chaque traitement peut être décliné, que le praticien soit uniciste, pluraliste ou complexiste. Une centaine de pathologies de médecine générale sont ainsi décrites avec les prescriptions commentées et modulables.
