The Essential Carer's Guide

With extensive experience of the NHS, caring for elderly relatives, and - most recently - working for a major dementia charity, Mary Jordan has updated and revised her Essential Carer's Guide to provide the key information you need when faced with caring for an increasingly frail relative or friend.

For the estimated six million carers in the UK today, Mary Jordan has once again brought together a wealth of practical information, supported it with numerous sources of extra help, and illustrated the practical issues with personal stories that experienced carers will instantly recognize. Revised and updated to reflect the latest changes in financial, social and health care support, this Guide will continue to be an essential companion for anyone caring for a relative or friend, especially in the context of old age and/or dementia.
