Summary
Many of us caregivers face uncertain future, while caring and providing for our elderly loved ones. Being responsible for the needs and care of an elderly loved one can be a difficult role that many of us do willingly, but it requires a lot of patience, time, energy, tenderness, and hard work. We often need to make decisions which are life-altering for our loved ones and for our own selves and, at times, are not pleasant or easy.
Tough Decisions in the Care of Elderly Loved Ones is an invaluable, practical, and sympathetic guide to how to give your loved one the best possible care, while addressing the concerns that you or other carers may have. This straightforward guide includes practical tips, real-life scenarios, checklists for best practice, advice and solutions to common problems, and expert advice on how to deliver compassionate and dignified care to older people.
In this book, Mahesh Moolani, MD, objectively divides the tough situations into four categories and tackles each category in a straightforward way. He offers professional support and guidance on how to maintain a work/ life/ caring balance and better care for your elderly loved ones. These decisions have to be made with compassion, knowledge, and an objective mind.
After listening to the book, you will feel as if someone is holding your hand while you make those tough decisions.
This audiobook covers ideas, like:
- How to have a conversation with your elderly loved one about change in health?
- How to deal with deteriorating physical and mental health in loved ones?
- What happens when the family members develop dementia?
- How to make the decision on in-home care or a care facility?
- How to adjust to your role as caregiver while still caring for yourself?
