Dementia changes more than memory. It can affect communication, judgment, relationships, and everyday routines, leaving families uncertain about how to help while preserving the dignity of someone they love.
Beyond Memory Loss: Dementia, Identity, and Compassionate Care for Families offers clear explanations and practical guidance for understanding these changes. Dr. Emil Fiasorgbor draws on extensive experience caring for people with dementia to help readers recognize the person behind the diagnosis and respond with greater understanding.
This book explores early warning signs, the differences between dementia and normal aging, communication difficulties, changes in behavior, sundowning, and the often distressing request, “I want to go home.” It also addresses daily care, safety, decisions about care settings, and the emotional demands placed on families.
Throughout the book, familiar caregiving situations illustrate ways to reduce distress, support remaining abilities, and respect personal history, preferences, and identity. The emphasis is on care that adapts to changing needs while keeping the person’s dignity at its center.
Written for families, caregivers, and care professionals, this second edition is Book One of the Dementia Care Series. It provides a thoughtful foundation for understanding dementia and making informed, compassionate care decisions.
