| Abstract
|
:
|
"Caring for the Older Person is written in six sections, covering the fundamental needs of an older person. Each section starts with an explanation and includes care procedures in a step-by-step format. Written by two experienced nurses, the book is systematic and evidence-based, using up-to-date knowledge and government policy. It is intended to be a practical aid to improve care for the older person, whether in hospital, care home or at home and to give the reader the confidence that they care they provide is safe and effective." "Caring for the Older Person is an essential resource for health care professionals, trainees, care assistants, and paid carers, whose work involves caring for an older person; and the lay person - someone who needs to acquire skill and confidence to care for an older friend, neighbour or relative."--Jacket.
