Professional Psychology in Long Term Care: A Comprehensive Guide

Rating:
Summary: A solid book on psychology in long term Care.
Review: A very readable and useful book on taking care of the psychological needs of residents and staff members in a long term care setting. The writers (different sections are written by different writers) really know about long term care facilities and offer many useful suggestions for working with the residents and meeting their psychological needs. I would recommend this book to anyone working in long term care in a clinical or mental health capacity.

Summary: I really learned from this book
Review: As a professional already working with the geriatric population, I was unsure about the usefulness of this book. However, I was pleasantly surprised. It reminded me of many issues in LTC that I tend to forget from day to day, as well as taught me a few new bits of information is well. It is certainly conveniently organized, with specific chapters for individual issues. Recommended!
