AnnotationThe author has conducted a research review in Australia in which she explored how difficult family backgrounds can lie buried beneath the surface, and how a person-centred approach can help family members as well as the person with dementia. She describes her work with a woman with dementia living in a residential care unit and the woman's relationship with her two daughters. The article includes discussion of the use of a modified version of Tom Kitwood's equation for person-centred care. (RH).
