About The Family Guide to Alzheimer's Disease: 5 Volume Set

For many families, Alzheimer's means a gradually diminishing quality of life both for the sufferer and caregivers. All too often, the disease has led to isolation and even a certain social stigma. It can impose psychological and emotional burdens just as heavy as the physical one. The Family Guide to Alzheimer's Disease was created to help families understand what to expect; deal effectively with the challenge of this disease; help their loved ones meet each day more successfully; and enhance the quality of life for all involved.

Alzheimers Disease A caregivers Guide

I am using this as a teaching guide for CNAs at my facility and we love it. Very well done and easy to understand. B.Sharp, Va. June 5, 2008

The Family Guide to Alzheimers Disease

This series is an excellent resource full of compassionate, helpful information, that covers the whole Alzheimers disease process.
It is very professionally produced, but is very sensitive in how the information is shared. This series has been very helpful, not only to my Dad as a primary caretaker of my Mom, but also to us as the children & family of an Alzheimers patient.
This series shares not only "facts" about this disease, but uses actual caretakers who share with the viewers tips and ideas that make taking care of your loved one less difficult, and more rewarding.
We highly recommend this resource to anyone looking for help in coping with this disease! May 14, 2008

Excellent resource for caregivers

I have used this series with an Alzheimer's support group and I have found it contains excellent information and a great basis for our group discussions. April 1, 2008

Excellent Informative Series

The presentation was excellent. I had read many books and articles, seen videos, before but this was the best! It was very smart to have the caregivers give their experiences, failures, successes for us to see. I recommend it to everyone! May 27, 2007

Just what I was looking for

This is an outstanding DVD set about Alzheimer's, and was sent in perfect condition. May 16, 2007
