| Annotation | Using selected journal or diary entries over a ten-year period, edited and anonymised, this paper offers insights into the personal experience of dealing with the progressive dementia of a close family member. Even informed professionals with knowledge into the health and care system can struggle with the challenges of the progressive dementia of a loved one and managing the system. Case studies can offer a range of diverse, if not unique, examples of the specific needs and problems faced by families that carers should take note of. This article also uses a narrative account, which brings home specific illustrations of good, best and problematic practices. (RH) |
