my Book about Brains, Change and Dementia
What is Dementia and What Does it Do?
Lynda Moore
Illustrated by George Haddon
JUL 2018 | £10.99 | 48pp | ISBN-9781785925115
A unique and honest children's book helping children under 5 understand what dementia is and how it affects their relatives
'Sometimes, a person's brain gets sick with a disease called dementia.'
What does dementia do to the brain? What changes might we notice if a parent or grandparent has the disease? How might we feel about it and what can help?
This book breaks down misconceptions about dementia and speaks directly to children wunder 5 about the realities of the disease, using age appropriate language in an engaging and informative way. It reassures parents of the value of open and honest conversation about the challenges raised by dementia and offers advice and support in the opening 'Guide for grown ups'. It includes a diverse audience of characters, to emphasise that ANY child can be impacted by dementia in their loved ones. Unlike traditional storybooks, the ending provides a question for the adult and child reading it to ponder together.
“Every school, every public library, every nursing home, and at home caregivers should have a copy of this book on hand for when needed.”
– Ryan A. Franklin (Librarian) – Netgalley review
Our brain is AMAZING!
Dementia has other names too – big long names that can be hard to remember.

Learning From Each Other for Better Dementia Support
David I. J. Reid
FEB 2021 | £ 16.99 | ISBN - 9781785923067
Learn how to carry out relationship-centred dementia care with this guide
Sharing and evaluating a series of relationshipcentred approaches to dementia care, this book enables practitioners to have hands-on involvement in improving the quality of care.
From fostering a critical approach to our understanding of how we do relationshipcentred dementia care, Reid shows how experiences of living with dementia, a family awareness of dementia, professional knowledge of providing dementia care, and the health, social care and housing system are linked, and how good dementia care arises from the relationships between these groups. The book encourages thinking about the stigma attached to dementia, and how a focus on living well with dementia helps shape policies about people with dementia, with their voices included. Practical steps for carrying out relationship-centred dementia care are also explained, with examples of common obstacles and how to overcome them.
Dementia-Friendly Communities
Why We Need Them and How We Can Create Them
Susan H. McFadden, PhD
Nov 2020 | £24.99 | ISBN - 9781785928161
How communities help people with dementia to thrive, shown through successful examples of this person-centred ethos
Creating dementia-friendly communities can give people with dementia the chance to continue meaningful lives with reciprocal personal relationships. Underpinning successful dementia-friendly communities is an awareness of people with dementia as active citizens and the importance of supporting engagement in community life.
Offering an overview of the dementiafriendly communities movement, this book, shows the many benefits of this approach. It describes community initiatives from across the globe, such as Dementia Friends, memory cafes, and creative engagement with the arts through organizations like TimeSlips. This compassionate book tells another story about dementia, away from negative stereotypes. This alternative approach claims people can retain a sense of dignity, hold onto hope, sustain meaningful relationships, and live with a sense of purpose with support from their communities.
Dementia, law and Ethics
A Practical Guide for Nurses and Other Healthcare Professionals
Julian C. Hughes, Aileen Beatty and Charlotte Emmett
DEC 2020 | £ 22.99 | ISBN - 9781785925108
How practitioners can deal with ethical and legal issues which arise in dementia contexts
Clinical dilemmas in dementia contexts are often not because the clinical facts are in doubt, but because the ethical and legal underpinnings are uncertain - which can cause worry and confusion. This practical book will help nurses, healthcare assistants and other practitioners to think through their responses clearly in the midst of these difficult
situations.
The chapters all stand alone, allowing the reader to dip quickly in and out of the book as required. They address complex issues such as abuse, behaviour that challenges, forced care, treatment withdrawal, and contain clinical case vignettes throughout.
This is essential reading to give practitioners the confidence that good legal and ethical decisions can be made in the same way as good clinical decisions.

A pocket guide for supporting the oral and dental needs of people living with dementia

Why Dementia makes Communication Difficult
A Guide to Better Outcomes
Alison Wray
AUg 2021 £22.99 | ISBN - 9781787756069
What goes wrong when we try to communicate with people living with dementia, and how to fix it
Dementia brings many challenges, not least its ability to disrupt effective communication. The quality of communication plays a major role in how well people living with a dementia manage. When communication doesn't work well, the complications of dementia are compounded.
Rather than only offering tips on what to say and how to say it, this book explores the underlying motivations of communication, so we can better understand why we say what we do, why we say it the way we do, what can go wrong, and how attempts to fix things can go awry.As well as considering why communication goes wrong in day-to-day conversations, the chapters offer advice on dealing with awkward moments, the question of deception, and the things we can and can't control in dementia. Readers are asked to reflect on their own role, and how they can manage their own behaviours to avoid unintentionally blocking routes to productive communication.
living Well with Sensory loss and Dementia
Ana Barbosa and Wendy Andrusjak
Nov 2023 | £16.99 | ISBN - 9781839970351
Equips readers to effectively support people with dementia and sensory loss, such as vision and hearing loss, to live fulfilled lives
Sensory loss and dementia often co-exist. When this happens, people may face a complex crossover of symptoms, presenting the challenge of how to manage multiple conditions and provide support to minimise the effect on dayto-day life.
In each chapter, this question is addressed through topics such as tests, treatments, communication support strategies, adapting living spaces, assistive devices and more. How symptoms of sensory loss can be mistaken for the effects of dementia is revealed, and strategies for successful assessment are provided. By incorporating the voices of people with lived experience of visual and hearing loss in combination with dementia, and their families, you are equipped with the knowledge to provide person-centred support.
