From Library Journal:
Despite the recent plethora of books on home care, this is a worthwhile addition. It is "a book for ordinary people who may lack prior experience with illness, who may never have dealt with health professionals, and who have not yet developed expertise in negotiating the bureaucratic maze of medical care." It is, in fact, a very complete and readable handbook for anyone involved in, planning for, or contemplating home care. Succinct yet inclusive information on the practical and psychological aspects, specific advice on disease and type of care needed, daily living tips and insurance and equipment guidelinesand a very nice agency resource directory which includes adult day care centers. The sections on stroke and Alzheimer's disease are particularly good. Recommended for home, professional, and advocate use. Nancy B. Burrell, M.L.S., IBID Inc., Sarasota, Fla.
