Chapter: “I'm Pretty Good”: The Practice of Caregiving

DOI: 10.1558/equinox.43537

Blurb:

In the "practice" of caregiving for individuals with Alzheimer's disease, caregivers gather needed resources and support services and secure financial plans as well as advance directives for their loved ones. Skillful knowledge and strategies, such as mindfulness and fall prevention practices, assist caregivers in gaining the confidence needed for encountering their loved ones’ disease progression. Remember, the more you know the better it'll go.™
