The Importance of Food and Mealtimes in Dementia Care
Mealtimes are about much more than just re-fuelling, and the importance of mealtimes in the care of people with dementia cannot be overestimated. Using her extensive experience of working with older people with dementia, Grethe Berg explains how mealtimes can be used as natural opportunities for meaningful interaction, socialising and reminiscing, and useful forums for taking part in familiar tasks. The book considers the social significance of mealtimes and their role in maintaining patients' feelings of social attachment and well-being as well as the impact of the symptoms of dementia on food and mealtimes. It also explores different types of residential care and how they can make mealtimes a focus of activity for patients. Finally, the author discusses practical implementation strategies, considering variables such as building design, interdisciplinary collaboration, organization of staff and residents, and staff participation and conduct at mealtimes. This book provides much-needed help and practical strategies for care managers and carers to reclaim mealtimes as positive experiences for people with dementia.
Ethical Issues in Dementia Care
Bradford Dementia Group Good Practice Guides There are always difficult day to day decisions to be faced when caring for a person with dementia - from knowing how to deal with wandering to end of life decisions. Many of these decisions are underpinned by value judgments about right and wrong and reflect a particular view of dementia. This book considers these ethical decisions in the context of relationships, treatment, safety and quality of life, offering practical guidance and advice. It draws on the experiences of family carers as well as on existing research and emphasizes the importance of empathy and the need to acknowledge different perspectives in order to reach the best decision for the person with dementia. In particular the authors discuss the way that decision makers are themselves changed by the decisions they make, and the impact of this on the decision-making process. This book should be read by all those who work caring for people with dementia.

Djævel i forklædning
En autocamper eksploderer på Grønnehave Camping i Helsingør. I det udbrændte køretøj finder politiet et forkullet lig. Er det køretøjets ejermand, journalisten John Jeppsen, der er brændt inde? Drabschef Bengt Langer og hans team hos Nordsjællands Politi går i gang med at finde frem til den indebrændtes identitet, hvilket trækker tråde til et kriminelt miljø i byen, og samtidig anskueliggøres det under efterforskningen, at journalisten var uønsket og upopulær i byen grundet hans afsløringer om visse bedsteborgeres kollaboration med besættelsesmagten under 2. Verdenskrig. Under sagens efterforskning får drabschefen en melding om fundet af et skelet på en byggeplads, hvor der skal opføres nye boliger. Hvor passer det ind i puslespillet om opklaringen af sagen om John Jeppsen og hans udbrændte køretøj, hvis overhovedet? Bengt Langer og teamet graver dybt i efterforskningen, der udvikler sig dramatisk fra dag til dag, og hvor meget tyder på, at svaret på opklaringen skal findes i fortiden.
