This in-depth description of life in a nursing/care home for 70
residents and 40 staff highlights the daily care of frail or ill
residents between 80 and 100 years of age, including people
suffering with dementia. How residents interact with care
assistants is emphasised, as are the different behaviours of men
and women observed during a year of daily conversations between the
author, patients and staff, who share their stories of the
pressures of the work. Living Before Dying shows a world where, in
extreme old age, people have to learn how to cope with living
communally.
