A Person-Centred Approach to Touch and Relationships Luke J. Tanner MAY 2017 • 256pp • £17.99 • $29.95 pb:9781785921094 • ebook:9781784503734 World rights available

Thoughtful exploration of how touch and non-verbal communication can enhance dementia care Providing clear answers for one of the most taboo challenges facing dementia care professionals today, this book instructs carers on how to re-evaluate their use of physical contact to create a more effective, person-centred care system for patients, through training exercises on consent and non-verbal communication. Using many examples from practice, Luke Tanner demonstrates that touch and other forms of non-verbal communication are essential for ‘being with’ and not just ‘doing to’ people with dementia, and explains how and when to use touch effectively in everyday interactions, and in all stages of dementia. He places touch in the context of consent and safeguarding, whilst emphasising the need for positive attitudes to touch to be at the heart of care cultures. Offering perspectives, ideas, training exercises and culture change actions to maximise the benefits of touch in dementia care settings, this practical guide will enable practitioners to reflect on their own use of touch and develop the knowledge, skills and confidence to place meaningful touch at the heart of their work.

APR 2017 • 352pp • £13.99 • $19.95 pb:9781785922565 • ebook:9781784505417 • World rights available

A fascinating synthesis of traditionally competing theories to help understand and explain the phenomenon of hearing voices The experience of ‘hearing voices’, once associated with lofty prophetic communications, has fallen low. Today, the experience is typically portrayed as an unambiguous harbinger of madness caused by a broken brain, an unbalanced mind, biology gone wild. Yet an alternative account, forged predominantly by people who hear voices themselves, argues that hearing voices is an understandable response to traumatic life-events. There is an urgent need to overcome the tensions between these two ways of understanding ‘voice hearing’. Simon McCarthy-Jones considers neuroscience, genetics, religion, history, politics and not least the experiences of many voice hearers themselves. This enables him to challenge established and seemingly contradictory understandings and to create a joined-up explanation of voice hearing that is based on evidence rather than ideology. An engaging enquiry into the psychology and neuroscience of voice hearing that explores hallucinated voices in all their fascinating forms. Vaughan Bell, University College London

BESTSELLER

Gives a detailed account of events as they took place, reflects on the psychological, political and social dynamics involved, and considers the implications for child protection professionals, policymakers, politicians and the media. Sharon Shoesmith was Director of Children’s Services for Haringey in 2007 at the time of the death of Peter Connelly, also known as ‘Baby P’. She explores the psychological and emotional responses we share when faced with such horrifying cases of familial child homicide, and how a climate of fear and blame which follows such tragedies can lead to negative consequences for other children at risk of harm, and for the social workers striving to protect them. Learning from Baby P is a book which aims to deepen understanding and shed light on the difficult relationship between politics, the media and child protection. At the heart of this formidable, authoritative book is a forensic account of a modern day political witch hunt. Patrick Butler, Social Policy Editor, The Guardian

A concise guide to implementing the key criteria of the award-winning PEARL programme in your care home, to improve residents’ well-being and achieve excellence

Identifying current global policy challenges for living well with dementia, this book tackles controversial topics at the forefront of public and political debate, and highlights pockets of innovation and good practice from around the world to inform practical solutions for living well with dementia in the future.

BESTSELLER

The award-winning PEARL (Positively Enriching and enhancing Residents’ Lives) programme was developed to enable care homes to move from providing good fundamental care to excellent person-centred dementia care. Trialled extensively by one of the UK’s largest care providers, it has been proven to dramatically increase the quality of life of people with dementia living in care homes, significantly reducing the use of antipsychotics and the incidence of stress-related behaviours. With an emphasis on the practical, achievable elements of the programme, and drawing on many useful examples, the author and contributors provide guidelines on, amongst many things, getting the fundamentals of person-centred care right; enabling decisionmaking; reducing stress-related behaviours; psychosocial treatments; safeguarding; supporting staff; and involving relatives. This book is a real pearl. It’s full of practical, down to earth ways of helping people and their families get the most out of life in their care home. It’s written by compassionate people who have years of experience and who have thought carefully about how to make things better.

BESTSELLER

This book clearly explains what happens to communication as dementia progresses.

Poignant and tragic story of one family’s experience of early onset Dementia

Midwest Book Review

Clive Beaumont was diagnosed with Younger Onset Dementia at age 45, when his children BESTSELLER were aged just 3 and 4. Clive’s wife, Helen, tells of how she and the rest of the family made it through the next six years until Clive died: the challenge of continually adapting to his progressive deterioration; having to address the legal implications of the illness; applying for benefit payments; finding nursing homes; and juggling her responsibilities as a wife, a mother and an employee. She also describes the successful founding and development of The Clive Project, a registered charity set up by Helen and others in a bid to establish support services for people with Younger Onset Dementia. Younger Onset Dementia is comparatively rare, but not that rare. This story is for the family and friends of people with the condition, for the people themselves, and for the professionals working with them. This book is as engaging and enlightening as it is poignant and tragic. This book belongs to the burgeoning genre in mental health writing of client/user (or in this case, carer) narrative, and adds in no little way to that body of authority of younger onset dementia.
