For 40 years, The 36-Hour Day has been the leading work in the field for caregivers of those with dementia. Written by experts with decades of experience caring for individuals with memory loss, Alzheimer's, and other dementias, the book is widely known for its authoritativeness and compassionate approach to care. Featuring everything from the causes of dementia to managing its early stages to advice on caring for those in the later stages of the disease, it is widely considered to be the most detailed and trusted book available. Highlighting useful takeaway messages and informed by recent research into the causes of dementia, this new edition has been completely updated. It features • brand-new content on everything from home care aides to useful apps to promising preventative techniques and therapies • practical advice for avoiding caregiver burnout―plus tips for when and how to get additional help • a completely new two-column design that allows readers to quickly access what they need The central idea underlying this indispensable book―that much can be done to improve the lives of people with dementia and of those caring for them―remains the same. The 36-Hour Day is the definitive dementia care guide. Review: ***Darn Good Book*** - Got this book for a girlfriend that is care taking her mother and the mothers doctor recommended this for the daughter (my girlfriend) to read. She got it and loves it. Because her Mom is going through issues with short term memory this book very well covers all the things you'll need and have to do when care taking someone. As per her verbal rating to me I must say I highly recommend this book for that purpose. Review: Insight Is Strength - The content of this book makes it a must read for loving and living with someone who has any kind of dementia. The title says it all and caring for your loved one can be challenging, rewarding and exhausting all at the same time. Although there is no one size fits all solution, this serves as a guide for everything from getting medical help, problems in daily care, managing behavioral and neuropsychiatric symptoms to finally and as importantly, self care. When choosing this guide be aware of the format options— I personally would have been better served to have purchased this as a Kindle edition instead of the 8”x11” version. The size alone makes it harder and conspicuous for me to carry around. I have to be intentional when I pull this print edition out whereas a Kindle version could be easily pulled up in the moments I find myself waiting. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #15,667 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #15 in Aging Parents (Books) #27 in Dementia #220 in Diseases & Physical Ailments Health | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 3,450 Reviews | ## Images ![The 36-Hour Day: A Family Guide to Caring for People Who Have Alzheimer Disease and Other Dementias (A Johns Hopkins Press Health Book) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51hRT5zDIxL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ***Darn Good Book*** *by S***S on July 21, 2026* Got this book for a girlfriend that is care taking her mother and the mothers doctor recommended this for the daughter (my girlfriend) to read.
