Product Description
'Guide to Ministering to Alzheimer's Patients and Their Families' examines the importance of spirituality in dealing with the everyday challenges of this mysterious disease. Not a 'how-to' manual with step-by-step instructions or tried and true formulas, this unique book instead examines the essential elements of ministering to dementia patients based on first-hand accounts of family members living through pain and uncertainty. The book explores the nature and stages of Alzheimer's; the desire to minister; theological understanding; grief and guilt; communicating with Alzheimer's patients; spiritual needs and implications for spiritual care; ethical issues and the role of ministry in decision-making; models for ministry; faith, hope, and love; blessings; and resources. This book is designed for all who desire to minister to those affected by Alzheimer's--especially pastors, priests, chaplains, pastoral counselors, church leaders, healthcare professionals, and seminary students.
