Description: Understanding the identity and history of those we support is vital. Setting out policies and procedures that encourage advocacy of individualised care for LGBTQ+ people with dementia, the goal is to encourage practices that help service users to feel understood, respected and well cared for.
Review Quotes: Immensely readable, this book takes the reader through why and how LGBTQ+ people's care needs differ and offers practical advice and case studies of how LGBTQ+ affirmative care can be provided. It should be essential reading for all those working in dementia care. --Alison Illiff, Health and Wellbeing Lead (Healthy Ageing), Office for Health Improvement and Disparities Yorkshire and the Humber
