Two cogent arguments about end-of-life careand carefully reasoned
responses from experts End-of-Life Care: Bridging Disability and
Aging with Person Centered Care features two primary papers on the
controversial issue of end-of-life care within the disabled and
aging populations. Each paper explainsclearly and honestlythe
multitude of issues involved in using person centered care. The
first is from a father and nationally known advocate for the
disabledRud Turnbullspeaking from a disability perspective about
his disabled son. The second is from respected theologian M. J.
Iozzio speaking from the aging perspective about her father's
Alzheimer's disease. Responses from experts in the field follow,
thoughtfully raising further points to consider about policies,
ethics, quality of life, and consent. The two central papers from
End-of-Life Care focus on person centered, interdependent care
using the personal reflections of two close family members and
their views about end-of-life care. The responses that follow each
are direct, thoughtful, and concentrate on the issues in
end-of-life planning using person centered care. This difficult and
important issue is discussed in detail by lawyers, theologians,
clinical practitioners, and professional service providers, and
includes several revealing personal stories about end-of-life
experiences. Helpful resources for both policy and practice are
also presented to assist the reader to learn more. End-of-Life Care
