Advanced Directives in Dementia Care: Cross-National Examinations (en Inglés) - Veselin L. Mitrović

Advance Directives in Dementia Care: Cross-National Examinations brings together leading scholars and experts from eighteen countries to examine the formulation, regulation, implementation, and implications of advance directives in dementia care. Combining philosophical and ethical analysis with extensive empirical research, the volume explores the validity of advance directives in the context of dementia and the complex moral questions they raise. It also considers the legal frameworks, public policies, clinical practices, and cultural values that shape their use across different national settings. Offering an interdisciplinary and international perspective, this collection is of interest to health and social care professionals, educators, policymakers, nongovernmental organizations, researchers, people living with dementia, and family caregivers. It also serves as a valuable resource for students of health care ethics, medical humanities, gerontology, nursing, and elder care.
