Lovely review of our new book on Dementia written by Amy Pepper, Karen Harrison Dening and Emma Wolverson.
Cover of a new book on Dementia for nursing, health and social care. The cover has the title and the authors, and the image is a bunch of different coloured woollen threads in the shape of a human brain. Five-star Amazon review of a new book about Dementia. The review reads: "This book is a must for anyone working in health or social care, who needs to understand people living with dementia and their families, and for people caring for their loved ones.
It is well laid-out in easy to understand language, with highlighted sections allowing the reader to dip into whichever subject they need. It covers matters such as diagnosis, how to best care for and understand those with dementia, along with key legal and safeguarding advice and so much more. Highly recommended!"
