About the Book

Here is comprehensive, systematic information about the services long-term care facilities are providing--outside of medical and nursing care--to enhance both the quality of care and the quality of life of the institutionalized elderly. Based on the results of a two-year survey of innovative programs in long-term care facilities for the elderly across the country, this impressive volume includes descriptions of physical activity programs, rehabilitation programs, and community linkage programs. The most important feature of each program description is the directory of information resources--a listing of responding facilities that are willing to be consulted about developing particular programs. Handbook of Innovative Programs for the Impaired Elderly is a source of fresh ideas and inspiration for creative responses to the needs of institutionalized elderly people.
