Increasingly, spiritual caregivers will serve those with dementia. However, few of us have training to do this demanding work. Having been there, Chaplain Behers has gifted us with a wonderful book that helps us bring compassion and presence to these people who are often so difficult to reach. A must-read. -- The Rev. George Handzo, BCC, CSSBB, President Handzo Consulting, LLC It is with great pleasure that I highly recommend Spiritual Care for People Living with Dementia Using Multisensory Interventions. Dr. Behers has done a tremendous amount of research in preparing this book. I have been honored to be able to assist him by photographing the needed pictures. With sight, combined with the other senses, many have come and will come to an awakening in this life. -- Carol A. Gilmore, MMin "This is a good day to be alive".
