With this caregiving role comes added stress and a difficult adjustment period for what begins as a part-time role and can become an unexpected career.

It is the first book that provides a research investigation into the factors associated with effective caregiving to dementia patients. This landmark work traces the experiences of husbands, wives, daughters, and sons in the caregiving role, identifying common stress factors and discussing how stress affects the caregiver's physical and emotional well-being.
