This comprehensive resource offers a detailed framework for
fostering resilience in families caring for their older members.
Its aim is to improve the quality of life for both the caregivers
themselves as much as for those they support. Robust interventions
are presented to guide family members through chronic and acute
challenges in areas such as emotional health, physical comfort,
financial aspects of care, dealing with health systems, and
adjusting to transition. Examples, models, interviews, and an
extended case study identify core concerns of caregiving families
and avenues for nurturing positive adaptation. Throughout,
contributors provide practical applications for therapists and
other service providers in diverse disciplines, and for advancing
family resilience as a field. Included in the coverage: Therapeutic
interventions for caregiving families. Facilitating older adults'
resilience through meeting nutritional needs. Improving ergonomics
for the safety, comfort, and health of caregivers. Hope as a coping
resource for caregiver resilience and well-being. Perspectives on
navigating care transitions with individuals with dementia.
Planning for and managing costs related to caregiving. Family
Caregiving offers a new depth of knowledge and real-world utility
to social workers, mental health professionals and practitioners,
educators and researchers in the field of family resilience, as
well as scholars in the intersecting disciplines of family studies,
human development, psychology, sociology, social work, education,
law, and medicine.
