Caring for Parents in Later Life by Avril Rodway
This book, based on real case histories and research, examines the options for those faced with taking responsibility for an older relative. It offers advice on assessing the practical and emotional needs of the elderly; helping them preserve their individuality and quality of life; the question of where to live - independently, in a residential home or with offspring; if the last, how to co-exist without excessive demands being placed on other family members; legal and financial matters; helping a parent come to terms with the death of a spouse; and guidance on some of the physical and mental health problems that can affect people in later life. In addition, there's a "help" directory of addresses and telephone numbers, pinpointing the services and support groups available to both the carer and dependant.| SKU | Unavailable |
