Practice that is evidenced through individual and family history, coupled with a range of psychosocial interventions, including a quality-of-life appraisal, would seem an ideal way to structure support at this transitional point in time. A fictitious case study is included which demonstrates that stress and negative adjustment are just as likely to occur early in the course of dementia as later on in the condition. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: case study review tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
