The Midwest Book Review (April 2007) writes: Now in a newly and substantially revised and expanded third edition, "The Comfort of Home: A Complete Guide For Caregivers" continues to earn its reputation as the 'bible' for providing home caregivers to aged, ill or handicapped loved ones with a thoroughly 'user friendly' illustrated guide that covers everything necessary from daily living tasks to preparations for hospice care, to making funeral arrangements. This is a complete and superbly organized, 216-page, comprehensive 'how to manual that will help the caregiver to develop their skills, expertise, and confidence, which will in turn enhance their peace of mind with respect to the quality of life for the person they are caring for.

"...a masterful job of presenting the multiple aspects of caregiving in a format that is both comprehensive and reader-friendly. The important focus on physical aspects of giving care are missing from many other publications in this category."

Excellent guide for Caregivers
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
The Comfort of Home is an excellent guide for caregivers and probably the most comprehensive in its approach that I have come across. It is very readable and organized in a way that makes it easy to reference. It covers all the basics including nutritional requirements for the elderly, daily activities, dealing with emergencies and illnesses, making the home safe, finances and legal concerns, avoiding burnout, and much more. Plus it has a lot of helpful illustrations, with special sections on Alzheimer's Disease. Very accessible for caregivers. Highly recommended.
