second edition
Peter S. Silin, MSW, RSW
Praise for the first edition:
“A thorough, excellent and humane book that helps families navigate a difficult, traumatic life change in the most successful way possible.”
—Inside GCM
“Among the most valuable chapters in this book is one titled ‘Making a Home Better,’ which includes wonderful advice on how a loved one can influence what goes on inside a nursing home. His inclusion of real-life stories from the families he’s encountered over 20 years anchors the book compassionately.”
—Los Angeles Times
“This is both a very humanistic book and a very practical one . . . written with the insight of a sociologist and geriatric care manager, someone who sees the human side of the equation first.”
