Two chapters are dedicated to the management of common behavior disorders, such as aggression and depression, and to the management of functional problems, such as bathing and dressing. Chapters on ethical issues, care of terminal dementia patients, and genetics, and a glossary ofterms round off the book. This book was written for clinicians of many disciplines, including physicians, psychologists, nurses, social workers, rehabilitation therapists, and others who care for patients with dementia in almost any setting, including long-term care.
