Book Description

1593301707 978-1593301705 October 15, 2004 1
In Chuck Oakes' book, "Making Your Home Senior-Friendly-A Guide for Family and Friends", the author sensitively and sensibly addresses the issue of aging and the ability to support the needs of our family members and friends. He has been able to do this from first hand experience with his own parents and shares his perspective on dealing with the challenges that can occur with this. The author shows that success can be achieved through collaboration with your loved ones. It also offers suggestions and helpful hints on perspectives, resources and devices that can enable you to maintain your own life and career. It is written with great emphasis on the dignity, compassion and respect that should still be given to those who are now finding new daily challenges just to maintain a good quality of life.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Senior-Friendly" hits the Nail on the Head, December 8, 2004
By 
Daniel A. Uitti (Oakville, CT United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: MAKING YOUR HOME "SENIOR-FRIENDLY" (Paperback)
Chuck knows exactly what we face when we start to help take care of our parents. His book is perfect in helping caregivers to understand their position as a family member that has or will begin to assist aging parents. Functionality is great, but Chuck's discussion of attitude, helpfulness and creating the right environment of our parents is fantastic. This book is refreshing and can help to set the right tone to the future ahead. Just maybe the "golden years" can be golden with love and understanding.
