Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Describes the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual components of caregiving, and advises individuals how they can help relatives institutionalized in nursing homes.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Many people incorrectly assume that, along with skilled care, nursing homes are an effective substitute for the warmth and intimacy of the family. Few are prepared for the shock of institutional placement. Most families are ill-informed about the vital role they can play in the care of their frail elder. Katherine Karr's personal and poignant account of the care provided to her grandmother during a difficult institutional experience encourages family members to take greater responsibility for ministering to their loved ones within the nursing home setting.Karr's clear, concise, step-by-step instructions address the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual components of caregiving. Advocacy and medical self-care are central themes. Her practical and comprehensive guidelines will help families effectively supplement care, thereby becoming integral to the caregiving process. Challenging the traditional positions that have encouraged patient/family passivity and compliance, she returns the focal point of attention to the unique role that family plays in enriching the lives of nursing home residents. Promises to Keep provides a manual for training family members, nursing home volunteers, community agencies, and support/advocacy groups.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A study of the relationship between literature and the current conditions of national life, We Are All Chile explores how artistic expression reflects lived experience. The book travels through figures, symbols, and events in Chilean history from the sixteenth to the end of the nineteenth centuries as represented through historical fiction of the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, an oeuvre that uses historical stories to reflect upon the challenges of Chilean society post-dictatorship. Contrasting the use of these stories with previous understanding highlights the power of legacies of the dictatorial authoritarian state, particularly as they shape possibilities for the full flourishing of people without regard for their minoritized or disadvantaged identities, such as their sex, sexual orientation, ethnicity, or race.This treatment of Chilean history and culture brings together literature and historiography to offer powerful interpretations of cultural narratives. The focus on varied dimensions of difference illustrates both overlapping representations and distinctive features of each within narratives imagining a more inclusive community. Throughout We Are All Chile, historical narratives and their source material are connected to support the creation of imaginative space for a better and more expansive future. The stories studied highlight the relationships between gender, empire, and the body; performances of race and gender that evoke a utopian dream of coexistence; symbols and systems of the nation as reflections of authoritarian practices; the legibility of the claims of indigenous communities; the role of violence in community building; and the strategies of lament inherent in the repeated stories of dreams for a more inclusive future shattered on the structures of exclusion. These historical narratives alone cannot change the material conditions in which people live, but they can awaken hope for the future that can inspire change. And it is this very process of defending, questioning, challenging, and changing historical stories that opens the door to possibility.…
