"At last, a practical guidebook for advocates." according to Paul Wesley. Here is a book that does a great straight forward job explaining home healthcare equipment as well as many other areas of consideration that advocates need to be aware of when deciding what to do when someone they love comes home from the hospital.This is the kind of book that lets you hit the ground running.. "Great book!" according to D. Elizabeth. There's nothing like advice from someone who has been there. The author paid his dues taking care of his mother and then wrote a great book that came from years of dealing with the health care system. His experience and the lessons he learned helped me as an advocate.. One of the books recommended I have found t his book helpful as I have started out as a patient advocate. it is easy to understand with terminology that can be comprehended without the need for a medical terminology book. Although one is needed,. I am looking to purchase another by this author.
