内容説明
Clinical psychologists are making an increasing contribution to caring for elderly people, particularly those suffering from dementia. This book is a broad, practical guide to this area. It does not give detailed descriptions of methods used throughout clinical psychology, but rather shows their application to work with the elderly, with any modifications or cautions this requires. The whole range of work with the elderly is covered, including substantial discussion of support in the community. Background sections of the book include discussions of psychological aspects of "normal" ageing and what happens psychologically in the more important manifestations of "abnormal" ageing, dementia in particular. This book should be of interest to trainee and practising clinical psychologists, psychiatrists, nurses and social workers involved with the elderly, and physicians in geriatric medicine.
