The Encyclopedia of Elder Care

Bag om The Encyclopedia of Elder Care

Elder care has become a growing concern for many families, communities, health professionals, and the many establishments that provide living arrangements for the elderly. To work in elder care, as a professional caregiver or a family care provider, requires a command of current information from multiple disciplines, including nursing, medicine, social work, counseling, as well as dentistry and physical therapy. Now, for the first time, this information has been gathered in a single source. The Encyclopedia of Elder Care features nearly three hundred articles providing practical information on how to care for elders. Written by more than three hundred experts, this accessible state-of-the-art resource addresses home care, including family-based care; nursing-home care; rehabilitation; case management; social services; assisted living; palliative care; and more. Each article concludes with references to pertinent Web sites. Easy to read and extensively cross-referenced, this comprehensive resource on geriatric and social care will be an indispensable tool for all who care for our nation's elders.
