AnnotationThere is widespread interest in the care of older people; and this book describes through personal narratives the experiences of working as a volunteer, a care assistant and an owner/manager of a care home in Leamington Spa. The author demonstrates how difficulties, disabilities and loss can be dealt with with humanity, to contribute to a good quality of life. She offers advice and reassurance to anyone considering moving into a home or looking for a home for someone else. The book also aims to inspire and encourage anyone working with older people. (RH).
