520    "This book demonstrates how to address practical and 
       ethical challenges when evaluating capacities of older 
       adults with neurocognitive disorders, like dementia. The 
       contributors are expert clinicians who draw upon real life
       experiences conducting clinical capacity assessments in 
       civil matters, illustrating best practices based on the 
       guidelines from the ABA/APA's Assessment of Older Adults 
       with Diminished Capacity: A Handbook for Psychologists. 
       Chapters cover complex and difficult issues in careful 
       detail, including: * financial exploitation, * undue 
       influence, * sexual consent, and * medical aid in dying. 
       The author also provides guidance for negotiating family 
       conflicts, working with surrogate decision makers who also
       have diminished capacity, coordinating with medical and 
       legal professionals, and addressing other situations that 
       involve multiple stakeholders with competing priorities. A
       recurring theme throughout the volume is the challenge of 
       balancing a client's right to autonomy, while also 
       protecting them from harm. The book offers careful, 
       effective advice for keeping clients who lack decision 
       making capacity involved in their healthcare choices and 
       working to maintain their independence when daily living 
       skills are impaired"--|cProvided by publisher.
