Cultures Of Care In Aging

66,25€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This book is about caring for elderly persons in the 21th century. It shows that care has many facets and is influenced by many factors. Central topics of this book thus include the relation between the person depending on care and the care giver(s), the impacts of caregiving on the family and the larger social context, as well as socio-cultural and political aspects underlying the growing need for and the practice of formal and informal care. It is evident that care as a real-life phenomenon of our time needs the co-operation of multiple disciplines to better understand, describe, explain and modify phenomena of elder care. Such a need for cross- disciplinary research is even more urgent given the increasing population aging and the impending gaps between demand and supply of care. The present book is dedicated to this approach and provides a first substantive integration of knowledge from geropsychology, other gerosciences, and cultural psychologies by a multi-disciplinary cast of internationally renowned authors. Cultural psychology emerged as a valuable partner of the gerosciences by contributing essentially to a deeper understanding of the relevant issues. Reading of this book provides the reader-researcher or practitioner-with new insights of where the problems of advancing age take our caring tasks in our 21st century societies and it opens many new directions for further work in the field. Finally and above all, this book is also a strong plea for solidarity between generations in family and society in a rapidly changing globalized world.

 How a mother's wisdom and grace helped one family come to terms with her dementia. Chrisoula had long been known for frying up honeyed Greek donuts anytime a guest arrived on her doorstep, offering a listening ear and sage advice, and sending her loved ones home with a plate of the golden orbs. She had cheeky blue eyes, a ready laugh and a generous heart - all of which had helped her deal with the many adversities she faced in her life.When she was diagnosed with dementia, Chrisoula drew on her trademark humour and earthy wit to ask the only questions that mattered: What would be the best photo to have on her gravestone? Did the glittering gold dress she wanted to be buried in need to be ironed? And would it hurt to enter the wormhole of death?As Chrisoula's dementia progressed, her adult children, Spiri and Dennis, grappled with guilt, sadness and fatigue as they fumbled their way from one bewildering symptom and care system to the next. But their mother had given them some very special gifts draw on at this time and which they could use long after she was gone.In this compelling tribute to her mother, Spiri shares these gifts, along with some practical no-nonsense 'golden nuggets' on dealing with the challenges of diagnosis, living with dementia and coping with grief. Twelve Golden Gifts is a must-read for those looking after a declining loved one and for anyone who is moved by a beautiful - and funny - love story.

 Caregiving is one of life's most profound responsibilities as well as one of its greatest challenges. Before you can care for anyone else, you must first care for yourself. Today's caregiving landscape is more complex than ever. You may be juggling work, family, and your own health while supporting someone who depends on you.

There is a way to walk this path with more balance, resilience, and peace.The key is mindfulness. Mindfulness isn't about perfection; it's about presence. It invites you to slow down, notice how you feel, and respond with compassion rather than judgment. When you approach caregiving mindfully, you create space to breathe, to pause before reacting, and to make choices that honor both you and your loved one.In this supportive guide, Nancy Kriseman offers practical tools to help you: Navigate family resistance and caregiving conflicts Build emotional and spiritual resilience to avoid burnout Use mindfulness to stay grounded in the moment Create sustainable self-care routines that reduce stress Strengthen communication and connection with loved ones Evaluate eldercare services and make confident decisions You are not alone. Thousands of caregivers have walked this road and discovered that mindfulness can transform the experience. It won't erase the hard days, but it will help you meet them with grace.
