En esta exhaustiva y pr������ctica gu������a, Stella Henry, experta en cuidados a largo plazo, ayuda a los lectores a dominar la abrumadora log������stica y las fuertes emociones que provoca el tomar decisiones respecto al cuidado de nuestros mayores, ya sea un padre, una madre o un ser querido. Bas������ndose en sus 36 a������os de experiencia como administradora y en el tiempo que pas������ cuidando a sus dos padres (uno de los cuales padeci������ los estragos de la enfermedad de Alzheimer), Henry aborda todos los temas dif������ciles: la detecci������n de los s������ntomas de demencia, la redefinici������n de roles entre hermanos, la forma en que se debe examinar una residencia de vida asistida o un hogar de ancianos, la mudanza y los modos de manejar las demandas de '������ll������vame a casa!'. Tambi������n explica los laberintos m������dicos, legales y de seguros. En estos tiempos en que casi 10 millones de personas en este pa������s necesitan cuidados a largo plazo, la Gu������a para el Cuidado de Nuestros Mayores es de lectura indispensable.
