MORE ABOUT THIS BOOK

Main description:

The unique demands on dementia care of remote and rural settings are explored in this first dedicated analysis. Drawing on evidence from the UK, Australia, Europe and North America, it examines the experiences and needs of those living with the condition and those caring for them, and sets out opportunities for future research, policy and practice in dementia services.
