This book is a guide to understanding, preventing and redirecting difficult behaviors associated with dementia. It presents a framework for assessing behaviors and creating successful individualized approaches, which are designed to reduce or eliminate the use of physical restraints and inappropriate psychoactive medications. The authors emphasize the importance of examining the environment to see how it may be creating difficult behaviors and how it can be altered to reduce or eliminate them. The book is designed to meet the new federal practice standards mandated by OBRA. Nurses, social workers, nursing home administrators, activities directors, and students of gerontology will find this a valuable resource.
This volume assesses the importance of autonomy to quality of life in long-term care facilities. First addressing conceptual issues, the editors then pose such questions as: What is autonomy and what does it mean in the context of physically and/or cognitively impaired elders? What is the effect of nursing home financing and federal regulations? How does the traditional medical model, which casts residents as "patients", affect autonomy? How does the physical environment make a difference? The contributors then go on to describe six successful models of care that provide a more meaningful quality of life through promoting autonomy. Contributors include Robert and Rosalie Kane, Keren Brown Wilson, and Bart Collopy.
