Health Equality and Social Justice in Old Age by Riaz Dharamshi
Through the deeply empathetic narration of real-life stories, Dr Riaz Dharamshi encourages us to reframe the way we approach geriatric care. It presents practical details of an integrated model of care allowing for expert, personalised healthcare to be delivered within our communities and outside of the hospital.
A practising doctor in the field of medicine for older people, Dr Dharamshi gives an informed and deeply compassionate view of the art of medicine for those in later life, why we so often get it wrong and dares to suggest how we might get rightRecommended for anyone thinking of entering the field, and a tonic for those who are in it. -- Dr Nick Kosky, consultant psychiatrist
Riaz is a community geriatrician, specialising in the care of older people with frailty and complex needs in their own homes. He works currently for the NHS in Hampshire in a role which combines clinical practice with senior management responsibilities.
He lives in West Dorset with his wife, daughter and dog, as well as an ever-growing menagerie of his daughter's pets. He is a keen squash player, whose enthusiasm outweighs his talents, and a regular swimmer.
