This book was released on 2016-12-08 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Family caregiving affects millions of Americans every day, in all walks of life. 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.
Book Synopsis The Conscious Caregiver by : Linda Abbit

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Linda Abbit, founder of Tender Loving Eldercare and a veteran of the caregiving industry, shares her advice on taking care of an older parent or loved one and how to handle everything that goes along with this dramatic life change. Being a caregiver can be a difficult role. It requires patience, tenderness, selflessness, and hard work. Providing care for someone, whether it’s a parent, a loved one, or as a professional requires a high level of self-love and self-care. But while it may be a rewarding experience to care for a loved one, the emotional and physical stress of caregiving can lead to burnout and exhaustion—causing caregivers to put themselves and their own well-being in the background. How can you fulfill your role as a caregiver without losing yourself? Conscious Caregiver teaches you how to navigate caring for your loved one, whether it’s full-time in-house caregiving or hiring support from outside services. With information on how to talk to your loved ones about the situation, handle the emotional stress, stay financially secure, and take the time to care for yourself, this guide can help you care for your loved one and yourself at the same time.

Download or read book The Caregiving Journey: Information. Guidance. Inspiration. written by Debbie Howard and published by . This book was released on 2018-11-22 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our world is currently experiencing a global Caregiving Crisis. If you, like so many others, are increasingly concerned about your loved one's needs as they age, then ask yourself the following questions: How does your loved one see their life playing out? Where do they want to live as they age (in their own home vs. assisted living)? What kind of health do they aspire to be in? What kinds of activities do they want to engage in? If and when your loved one can no longer live independently, what is their preference (i.e., paid in-home help, assisted living or nursing facility)? Is their preference realistic considering their financial situation, and if not, what are the feasible alternatives? The Caregiving Journey goes far beyond the basics of wills and logistical funeral plans-basics many people have in place (especially where children are involved). Rather, you'll be guided and supported to create a well-thought-out plan for those three, five or even 10 or more years when your loved one needs your help because they can no longer live on their own. With the inspiration, practical steps, support, and tools provided inside these pages, you'll be well-equipped to guide your family members and loved ones to the end of their lives with love, ease and grace.Bringing together her 30+ years as a professional market analyst and her personal experience as a live-in caregiver for her mom, author Debbie Howard has integrated her experiences-along with the journeys of over 200 other caregivers-into this book to help you choose your best way forward.

Book Synopsis Flourishing in the Later Years by : James Michaels
Download or read book Flourishing in the Later Years written by James Michaels and published by . This book was released on 2011-12 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If asked, almost all seniors will say they don't want their last home to be a nursing home. But for those who do live in a care facility, the responsibility to energize them falls primarily to the staff. Rabbi James R. Michaels and Rabbi Cary Kozberg, the editors of Flourishing In The Later Years: Jewish Pastoral Insights On Senior Residential Care, provide insights on senior residential care from Jewish and non-Jewish clinical care professionals. They share their wisdom on a variety of topics from a Jewish perspective to assist and guide team members responsible for the care of the residents living in their facility. While the focus of the book is pastoral counseling in senior residential care, its psycho-social insights into the very core of what it means to be old in our culture - whether in or out of a care facility; whether Jew or non-Jew - are invaluable. This book will be of considerable assistance to those of any spiritual background who interact with elders and to all of us as we continue along the "incredible adventure" of our own aging, making our own "voyage of discovery" into that unknown country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many phases to free caregiving, and each one is different. You do it for various reasons-some because of love; some for reward, not monetary but for the satisfaction that you have helped someone; and others the obligation or necessity to do it. I was involved from age ten to ninety, just one among the forty-three million in the United States today, in giving care. I am now almost ninety-five, living in a nice assisted living facility, and the recipient of care myself. I wrote this book to reveal how I was able to cope, always trying to maintain a sense of humor and a positive attitude. It requires patience, prayer, and push.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume focuses on understandings and enactments of care in teacher induction in a landscape reshaped by the recent pandemic, ongoing societal issues, and increased expectations of teachers. Building on the editors’ book Reconstructing Care in Teacher Education after COVID-19: Caring Enough to Change, this volume extends reconsiderations of care and teacher development into K-12 schools, aiming to explore how care is, should, and can be operationalized in teacher induction now.

Authors include teacher educators, practicing teachers, and administrators representing different subject areas and educational levels. The operationalization of care also takes many forms, from mentorship and professional learning communities to support in navigating burnout and staff shortages. Chapters offer specific examples from contributors’ own teaching experiences and conclude with suggestions for adapting the model or practice for readers’ own programs and students. Ideal for faculty working with preservice educators and administrators supporting newly hired teachers, this book can also serve as recommended or supplementary reading in undergraduate or graduate teacher education, curriculum and instruction, leadership, and educational administration courses as well as within professional development opportunities.
