Description
Dementia and Place Practices, Experiences and Connections by Richard Ward, Andrew Clark, and Lyn Phillipson explores the complex relationships between people with dementia and their environments. This collection of essays sheds light on the social aspects of place, including attachment, belonging, and connectivity, and how these factors impact care and support. By examining the potential and challenges of neighbourhood-centred care, the book offers a unique perspective on policy and practice, advocating for a new culture of care that prioritises place-based support.
