In this comprehensive and accessible guide, long-term care
expert Stella Henry helps readers navigate the daunting logistics
and powerful emotions of making care decisions for an elderly
parent or loved one. Drawing from her 36 years as a registered
nurse and a nursing home administrator, as well as her experience
caring for both her parents (both of whom suffered the ravages of
Alzheimer's disease), Henry tackles all the tough issues: spotting
the warning signs of dementia, redefining sibling roles, doing a
walk-through at an assisted living facility or nursing home, making
the move, and coping with "take me home " demands.She also explains
the medical, legal, and insurance maze. In a time when almost 10
million Americans currently need long-term care, The Eldercare
Handbook is an essential read.
