This book provides guidance to non-professional caregivers who are responsible for the care, safety and well-being for patients struggling with AD. Part I defines what Alzheimers disease is, who discovered it, when it was first detected and how that discovery came about. It outlines the AD diagnostic process and concludes with a number of actions a person should take once they have been diagnosed with AD. Part II examines the duties and responsibilities of caregiving that are associated with AD. It analyzes the duties and responsibilities of personal versus institutional caregiving and describes each of their particular roles and how they evolve as the disease progresses. Part III discusses Caregiver orientation. All too often, Caregivers become so consumed with the obligations of caregiving, that they neglect their own health. This section outlines major lifestyle changes that must take place. Part IV explores the past one hundred years of treatments for ADRD, clinical trials, research and Caregiver investigations. Given the outcomes and progress made to date, novel methods for the treatment and cure of AD are recommended.
