This review is from: Handbook of Geriatric Care Management, Second Edition (Hardcover)
If you are looking to really know how to be a geriatric care manager, this is the book for you. It's extremely comprehensive and gives excellent detail. I feel it covers all the bases. It's one of the best GCM books on the market. I highly recommend it, even if you feel you know everything there is to know. I make each of my social workers keep a copy of this book.
