This volume features ten scholars from anthropology, nursing,
sociology, gerontology, human geography, and other disciplines who
provide ethnographic case studies exploring critical care
decision-making, models of care for people with Alzheimer's
disease, the way residents cope with the limitations, indignities,
and opportunities of nursing home life, the roles of family members
and nursing home employees, and the formulation of assisted
living.The authors offer sustained examinations of the settings,
flow, and structure of life relationships in geriatric long-term
care institutions, as well as significant innovations in
ethnographic methods. Researchers, caregivers, and those attentive
to their own quality of life as they age will find this book
essential reading.
