Reseña del libro "How to Find The Best Adult Family Home Care for Your Elderly Parent: Geriatric nurse insider shows you where to start, the best questions to ask, and (en Inglés)"
Understandably, most of us are worried about placing our loved one in a care facility, especially if they are frail and vulnerable. We worry about abuse, neglect, cost, and other undesirable issues the media tends to churn out as front-page news. In this book, author Joseph Spada, LPN, offers you insider's guidance into long-term care, explains what your options are, and the pros and cons of each. He shows you how to find and select the best facility for your needs, and most importantly, what traps to watch-out for. Joseph introduces you to the growing trend of Adult Family Homes; often overlooked, their small size and highly personalized care make them a very attractive choice for both aging seniors and their adult children, and a worthwhile alternative to larger institutional settings. But as with any important endeavor, you need expert guidance before venturing into unknown territory - this book is your roadmap. Packed with invaluable insights and practical tips, you'll be able to make clear and informed decisions when dealing with any frail, elderly person. As a geriatric nurse with more than 25 years' caring for hundreds of seniors and operating Adult Family Homes, Joseph is in a unique position to compare and contrast your choices in a straightforward manner. Highlights of What You'll Learn: - How to determine the safety risks in your current situation - Aging-in-place: myths vs. reality - How to avoid costly mistakes and unsafe situations - Working with Senior Referral Agents; key facts to know - The MUST-ASK questions of any long-term care facility - before signing a contract! - Top 10 items to look for when visiting any care facility - How to monitor care and address concerns, like a pro! - And much more! "Most of the time, people have no clue what they're getting into. They just get in trouble after the fact. I think your book is a great help to them and should be required reading!" Gale Wald, RN, consulting geriatric nurse. NOTE: The book is most relevant to Washington State, but a majority of the information applies regardless of which state you live in. The book is NOT intended to help you start a residential care home business.
