Hospice Care at Home: A Guide to Caring for Your Dying Loved One at Home - Softcover

Hospice Care at Home was written for the family caregiver who wants to care for their dying loved one at home but lacks the confidence to do so. It is written in a heartfelt, simplistic, instructional style rather than with a more technical vocabulary. Topics include hands-on care tips, financial and legal matters, mixed emotions, hospice roles, caregiver burn-out, physical signs of impending death, the funeral, and more. Original.

Starr & Bob have cared for the elderly in their own home, My Brother’s Keeper, (specializing in the terminally ill and people with dementia, such as Alzheimer’s), since 1989. Their heartbeat has always been to counsel and teach the families of the elderly they care for and help them through the tumultuous grieving process which begins at the time of diagnosis rather than at the time of death. They have been very happily married for 25 years and work, speak and appear together as a team. Starr is a columnist for www.saworship.com
