Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is written in the hopes that those who have chosen to take on the role of caregiving will find answers to problems they will face each day and be able to see that they are not alone in their endeavors to help those in need. This book is written to be short and to the point for easy, spur-of-the-moment answers, but more than anything, I have written it to be a source of encouragement as you take on what I consider the hardest profession in the world.

At least 17.7 million individuals in the United States are caregivers of an older adult with a health or functional limitation. The nation's family caregivers provide the lion's share of long-term care for our older adult population. They are also central to older adults' access to and receipt of health care and community-based social services. Yet the need to recognize and support caregivers is among the least appreciated challenges facing the aging U.S. population. Families Caring for an Aging America examines the prevalence and nature of family caregiving of older adults and the available evidence on the effectiveness of programs, supports, and other interventions designed to support family caregivers. This report also assesses and recommends policies to address the needs of family caregivers and to minimize the barriers that they encounter in trying to meet the needs of older adults.

Download or read book Caregiver Family Therapy written by Sarah Honn Qualls and published by American Psychological Association (APA). This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Caring for an older family member with physical or cognitive impairments is a difficult, strenuous process. Caregivers often struggle to balance their own needs with those of the care recipient. Their relationships with family, friends, coworkers, and even the care recipient can suffer as well. As a result, family members often seek professional help to guide them through the caregiving process. This book presents Caregiver Family Therapy (CFT), a systems approach to treating families that care for an aging adult. CFT consists of three core stages: Identifying the problem Structuring caregiver roles Ensuring caregiver self-care Transition stages bridge one core stage to the next, helping caregivers structure care for the older adult, examine the impact of caregiving role structures, and consider broader effects of caregiving. As new challenges arise, the stages are repeated and the CFT process begins anew. Full of rich clinical examples, this book will help therapists and other service providers meet the complex, diverse needs of caregiving families.

Book Synopsis The Challenge of Attachment for Caregiving by : Dorothy Heard
Download or read book The Challenge of Attachment for Caregiving written by Dorothy Heard and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The predicaments that bring adults into therapy can often be traced to unsatisfactory experiences of caregiving in childhood. If our capacity for caregiving derives mainly from our own experience of receiving care, then a clearer understanding of how this process of interaction works is crucial for the professional caregiver. The Challenge of Attachment for Caregiving proposes a model for the development of caregiving, shows how it can be related to therapeutic practice and complements and extends the theory of attachment. Drawing on many years' experience as clinicians and researchers, the authors explore in depth an aspect of human development which has profound implications for our future survival. Presenting its own challenge to both theory and practice, this book offers students and practitioners a new perspective on attachment.

Book Synopsis The Role of Human Factors in Home Health Care by : National Research Council
Download or read book The Role of Human Factors in Home Health Care written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2010-11-14 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rapid growth of home health care has raised many unsolved issues and will have consequences that are far too broad for any one group to analyze in their entirety. Yet a major influence on the safety, quality, and effectiveness of home health care will be the set of issues encompassed by the field of human factors research-the discipline of applying what is known about human capabilities and limitations to the design of products, processes, systems, and work environments. To address these challenges, the National Research Council began a multidisciplinary study to examine a diverse range of behavioral and human factors issues resulting from the increasing migration of medical devices, technologies, and care practices into the home. Its goal is to lay the groundwork for a thorough integration of human factors research with the design and implementation of home health care devices, technologies, and practices. On October 1 and 2, 2009, a group of human factors and other experts met to consider a diverse range of behavioral and human factors issues associated with the increasing migration of medical devices, technologies, and care practices into the home. This book is a summary of that workshop, representing the culmination of the first phase of the study.

Book excerpt: The Caregiver's Secrets is an account of one woman's 20+ year experience as a caregiver for an aging parent framed by powerful statistics and urgent policy issues. It emphasizes both the enormous scope of the demographic challenge facing America and the poignant details of coping with day-to-day caregiving responsibilities. The book aims to ?open up? the experience of caregiving, a shadowy corner of family life with huge but largely unrecognized social and economic impacts. The narrative touches on many key challenges and dilemmas facing families and their aging loved ones, including difficult discussions about end of life decisions, the changing nature of medical services delivery, and the mind-numbing bureaucracies that dominate the landscape of an individual's final years. The Caregiver's Secrets includes tips and helpful advice for practicing caregivers as well as those who are destined to become caregivers whether they know it or not. It attempts to span the general and the particular, connecting the dots within a complex and hidden, but increasingly important sector of American life.
