New book offers roadmap for dementia caregivers

FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- A newly released book is offering guidance and support to millions of family caregivers providing dementia care to loved ones.

"The Complete Dementia Caregiver's Guide" by Dr. Smith is designed to serve as training, guidance and a roadmap for those navigating the challenges of caregiving. The resource comes as many families take on the responsibility of caring for relatives with dementia, often without formal instruction or support.

In an interview, Action News anchor Vanessa Vasconcelos spoke with Dr. Smith about what caregivers should watch for and how they can best support their loved ones.

"The Complete Dementia Caregiver's Guide" is available now on Amazon.
