Format:Paperback
I have been working with a group at a large Nursing Home in NYC. We all have found that this is a great book to help to direct the initial education program. It is comprehensive and the topics are well covered. I recommend this book for anyone who is ready to take their palliative care nursing home education program to the next step.
Format:Paperback

our nursing homes all the time. Really shows our people what they can do
to nurture and comfort both the patient/resident and their families.
