Book Description

Publication Date: January 1995 | ISBN-10: 1878812254 | ISBN-13: 978-1878812254 | Edition: 1

Of all health care workers, it's home health care aides and nursing assistants who typically spend the most time working with frail older adults but receive the fewest hours of training. The Paraprofessional in Home Health and Long-Term Care presents practical, accessible, in-service education material that learners will enjoy. Twelve detailed units examine communicating with older adults, understanding the effects of dementia, dealing with death and dying, and more. Each unit is a complete teaching module with reproducible materials for handouts and transparencies.
