AnnotationDrawing on research with family carers, this book aims to help non-family, formal carers of people with dementia gain expertise in ethical matters. Ethical decisions are considered in the context of relationships, treatment, safety and quality of life. The authors discuss the way that decision makers are themselves changed by the decisions they make, and the impact this has on the decision-making process. (RH).
