Annotation"Home work", a set of nine booklets for care staff, covers a wide range of facets of life in a residential care setting for older people. The aim is to provide information and ideas, and to raise questions that will help staff in seeking better ways to work in home. This sixth booklet concentrates mainly on the causes and effects of sight and hearing losses, and the action which should be taken to help residents cope. The impact of the deterioration of touch, taste and smell are also outlined. (RH).
