Summary: "A must not only for care-givers...but for aging people"
Comment: "...a must for not only care-givers who are the focus of this book, but for aging people and their famililes who need to know the advantages and disadavantages of home-care before making a decision to provide a realistic alternative to nursing home care."
"The subject of this easy-to-read book covers an enormous range of information that might suggest an encyclopedic format. These professionals in the field of home-care present the various aspects of home-care with understanding and warmth for all the people involved in this program rather than in technical jargon. It is neighborly in tone with respect for the reality of the aging process."

Summary: Best reference for hands-on caregivers
Comment: I am the Director of The Waud Patient and Family Resource Center based out of Rush Presbyterian St. Lukes Medical Center in Chicago, Illinois. I am a nurse by career choice, and a caregiver by nature. I have provided home care and hospice care to a number of family members. I found this book useful to teach family members how to take care of someone at home. It has clear illustrations, step by step instructions for those tasks caregivers do every day, and a resource listing for those items that help make the job easier. It also has introductions to other areas of care which are very informative. This book empowers people without any healthcare education or experience to understand the mechanics of taking care of another person - no matter where they live. If you have family in a nursing home, this book will help you evaluate the care they receive. Both personally and professionally I would recommend this book to any person with a loved one who needs care.

Summary: Easy to read-full of tips
Comment: This book was very easy to read and contained a lot of practical tips on a wide variety of subjects. I liked the tips on how to make items yourself, cutting costs on things like hair washing aids and for making your home safe and navigable. The simple illustrations make the instructions easy to follow and the abundance of listed resources for more information and support was a nice bonus.
