Editorial Reviews

Review

"An excellent reference for administrators and boards contemplating the establishment of specialized units." -- Journal of Long-Term Care Administration



"The expertise of the authors comes through clearly, and the book succeeds in presenting a practical, humane, and highly readable discussion of the many complex and under-researched issues involved in establishing optimal institutional environments for persons with dementia... Provides many comprehensive guidelines for planning and implementing SCU's and offers numerous concrete examples, case vignettes, and illustrations related to creating environments for persons with AD." -- Journal of the American Geriatrics Society
