Dementia Rehabilitation: Evidence-Based Interventions and Clinical Recommendations

Lee Fay Low (Editor), Kate Laver (Editor)

Research output: Book/ReportBookpeer-review

Abstract

Rehabilitation helps individuals maintain and optimize independence. Historically, people with dementia have received little rehabilitation and the focus has been on care to replace lost function. Dementia Rehabilitation is a resource for health and social professionals, service planners, policy makers, and academics. The book makes a compelling case for rehabilitation for people with dementia, including the views of people with dementia and the research evidence. For each area of function, the research evidence and relevant theory is summarized, followed by practical information on clinical assessment, and delivery of therapies.
