Restoring Trust in The Power of Touch
PUBLISHED MAY 2017!
‘A welcome addition to our field. This book celebrates the potential of touch while also confronting its challenges, and helps to ensure that touch takes its rightful place as integral to person-centred care.’
Dr Murna Downs, Head of the School of Dementia Studies, University of Bradford
‘Individual person-centred care is a key aspect of improving the quality of life for people with dementia. There are many approaches to this and having a range of techniques available that can help, where appropriate, to improve relationships are key. Luke Tanner should be congratulated at describing, so adroitly, touch as one such approach.’
Alistair Burns, Professor of Old Age Psychiatry, University of Manchester
