The learning and working book imparts the necessary knowledge about dementia, evidence-based nursing and therapeutic interventions, as well as professional consulting areas such as behavioral standards from a multi-professional perspective. Reflection and transfer questions encourage readers to develop professionally in their work with individuals with dementia and their caregivers. Dementia is a topic that deserves attention not only due to demographic developments. The relational dynamics between individuals with dementia, their relatives, professional companions, and the environment require consideration. Often, this relationship is fundamentally disturbed, with relational and communicative silence being not only a consequence of the illness. Relational and communicative silence is also evident among the companions, despite their knowledge of the disease-related aspects.
