In this comprehensive and accessible "guide," a long-term care expert helps readers navigate the daunting logistics and powerful emotions of making care decisions for an elderly loved one. Drawing from experience as a registered nurse and a nursing home "administrator," as well as caring for both her "parents," Henry tackles all the tough issues: spotting the warning signs of "dementia," redefining sibling "roles," evaluating an assisted living facility or nursing "home," making the "move," and the "medical," "legal," and insurance maze.
