With this timely resource, speech therapists can readily access the information needed to assess, treat, and document care for patients with dementia. Far from a cookbook approach to dementia care, this book offers valuable information on staging of dementia, goal setting (including documentation), and treatment trends. The authors provide functional tips and intervention strategies that encourage clinicians to utilize critical thinking to formulate personalized care plans specific to the patient's strengths and weaknesses.
