Caring for Latinxs with Dementia in a Globalized World: Behavioral and Psychosocial Treatments de Hector Y. Adames

Caring for Latinxs with Dementia in a Globalized World: Behavioral and Psychosocial Treatments

Editat de Hector Y. Adames, Yvette N. Tazeau
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 17 apr 2020
This volume provides a broad and critical presentation of the behavioral and psychosocial treatments of Latinxs with dementia in the United States (U.S.) and across a representative sample of Spanish-speaking countries in the world. The compendium of chapters, written by researchers, practitioners, and policy analysts from multiple disciplines provides a deep exploration of the current state of dementia care for Latinxs in the U.S. and around the globe. The volume is designed to increase and strengthen the collective scientific and sociocultural understanding of the epidemiological and biopsychosocial factors, as well as the overlapping systemic challenges that impact diagnosis and symptom management of Latinxs with dementia. The authors introduce policy options to reduce risk factors for dementia and present culturally-responsive interventions that meet the needs of Latinx patients and their caregivers.
 Highlighted topics featured in the book include:
  • Contextual, cultural, and socio-political issues of Latinxs with dementia.
  • New meta-analysis of dementia rates in the Americas and Caribbean.
  • Dementia-related behavioral issues and placement considerations.
  • Educational, diagnostic, and supportive psychosocial interventions.
  • Pharmacological, non-pharmacological, and ethnocultural healthcare interventions.
  • Intersectionality as a practice of dementia care for sexual and gender minoritized Latinxs.
  • Prescriptions for policy and programs to empower older Latinxs and their families.
Caring for Latinxs with Dementia in a Globalized World: Behavioral and Psychosocial Treatments is a resource that accentuates and contextualizes the heterogeneity in nationality, immigration, race, sexual orientation, gender, and political realities. It is a key reference for a wide range of fields inclusive of demography, geriatrics, gerontology, medicine, mental health, neurology, neuropsychology, nursing, occupational therapy, pharmacology, psychiatry, psychology, rehabilitation, social work, sociology, and statistics all of which, collectively, bear on the problem and the solutions for better care for Latinxs affected by dementia.
