Aging - "A Caregivers Guide" addresses the process of aging and the unique challenges that we face as we grow old. The book is written as a reference guide to understand the needs of an aging relative. The first part of the book focuses on how to assess the current state of the elderly. It deals with issues of safety. Is your loved one safe at home? Are they capable of operating a motor vehicle? Has your loved one's home been modified to promote safety and independence? After the initial assessment, we review various options for housing, transportation, meals, and other needed resources to support your loved one. We talk about the financial needs, legal concerns, insurance options, and useful medical terminology. The second part of the book is written as a guide to understanding. It helps to explain what is normal aging and what is not, and gives useful advice to patients and caregivers trying to navigate our healthcare system. The book covers a complete head to toe assessment of each body system, the diseases that are commonly experienced within each system and where to go for additional help. In short, the book is a complete reference guide to assessment, resources, and understanding of the the elders needs, and the responsability associated with caregiving.

For the past twenty years, most of my professional life as a registered nurse has been spent in the field of 'Home Healthcare' with a special emphasis on "Hospice". Over the years I have been asked time and again, by patients and their caregivers, if there was a reference book or other information available to help guide them through the maze that is our current health care system. I have often guided patients or family members to the resources or professionals that can provide the help that they needed.
