Review of Creative Long-Term Care Administration (Hardcover)

This is a wonderful book about Nursing Home Administration.It approaches the topic from a much more up to date perspective than the other text books out there, with references to newer management styles, a more holistic/wellness approach to the resident, resident-centered care, and pet therapy. It also covers the basics such as board governance and techniques to working with your board.This is a wonderful book to learn about how to administrate TODAY's and TOMORROW's culture changed nursing homes, not yesterdays.

A MUST READ FOR FUTURE AND CURRENT NH ADMINISTRATORS.

Review of The Nursing Home Handbook: A Guide to Living Well (Paperback)

Ruth Davis writes with humor and great practicality on a topic that I find uncomfortable and somewhat overwhelming.She provides information on all aspects of nursing home care --from finding the right setting, to copingwith details of day to day life in a home, to the last moments.I love heruse of sidebars, little snippits of advice, often filled with humor andalways packed with common sense. I would recommend this book to anyonefacing the problem of long term care for self or loved one.
