Caring for a loved one diagnosed with Dementia can be an overwhelming and terrifying journey for both the caregiver and the patient. Did you know that over 50 percent of caregivers across the globe have said their health has suffered because of dementia caring responsibilities?
If you aren't prepared ahead of time, you may find yourself emotionally and physically burnt out—which will also negatively impact the quality of life for your loved one as a result.
If you want to learn how to give your loved one the best memories of their life as they enter early-stage dementia, then you need to listen to this audiobook.
Inside Dementia Must-Knows, you will discover:
- The nine early dementia warning signs to look out for.
- The three progressive stages of dementia and their symptoms.
- Understanding the distinction between Alzheimer's and Dementia.
- The dos and don'ts of caring for stubborn or difficult loved ones.
- The six types of caregivers.
Including so much more information and knowledge that will teach you everything you need to know in preparation for your caregiving journey.

Well Organized Dementia Audiobook
First hand knowledge on this topic is obvious & genuine. the author is clear & honest drawing on his real-life experiences to connect with the listener. I love acquiring knowledge of new topics & this audio book will stay in my library for when (or if) in the future the teachings from it are needed in my personal life, the notes at the end of each chapter are helpful & a nice touch. If you have a family member with dementia, this book would be helpful.

A wealth of information!
I found the information on behavioral changes very helpful. I appreciated the tips on how to take care of myself as a caregiver. That is so important. If I don’t take care of myself, how will I take care of someone else? Also helpful for me were the examples of how to redirect the person’s attention to help calm them if they are agitated.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this audiobook if you are, or will be, taking care of a loved one with dementia.

Great addition!!!
The book is very well written with lots of useful advice for caregivers and families needing to know more. It is part a guide to the care of people and an explanation of the progressing of the disease. It is informative and sympathetic in its approach to this difficult condition. It is detailed and comprehensive enough, but it is human, real and approachable enough for family members to read and learn from. It is so important to understand what life is like for the person affected - and this book does a wonderful job to get this message across in detail. It is excellent.

This is a dementia must-knows book as the title says. I enjoyed listening to this book. It is comprehensive and easy-to-follow.

This book discusses well the early warning signs of dementia, the progressive stages and symptoms, the do's and don'ts, the different types of caregivers etc. Any caregiver taking care of a demented patient will tremendously benefit from listening to this audiobook. Highly recommend.

Great resource for caregivers or anyone
As a caregiver of several family members with dementia, this book is a great resource. All of my family members differed in their symptoms and progress, but several of the warning signs in this book were there for them all. One family member had severe sundowners, and she would repeatedly call several family members in a panic or angry. As a caregiver, it's draining, and knowing how to respond to your loved one is crucial. This book is also needed for anyone taking care of a loved one with dementia as a tool for self-care.

This is a useful guide
This is such a difficult topic but the author handled it well. The book is empathetic but also very practical.
I have so many people in my life who are having to become caregivers for people with dementia that I thought I would read up so that I can support them. I’m glad I picked up this book.
It worth the listen, and I will be sharing on with others already in a caregiver role.
