About this audiobook
"It takes a village to raise a child" - and similar support helps elders age at home.
Home caregiving reduces healthcare costs while improving elder quality of life, but caregiver training remains scarce.
"Make it Safe! A Family Caregiver's Home Safety Assessment Guide for Supporting Elders@Home" provides essential safety tips for supporting semi-independent elders. This guide includes a downloadable home inspection sheet and has an available companion workbook.
Author Rae A. Stonehouse brings 40+ years of nursing experience, primarily in mental health and geriatrics, plus occupational safety expertise to help identify & address home hazards.
The book covers home safety assessment strategies, elder driving safety discussions, financial scam prevention, and ongoing healthcare supervision.
With COVID-19 prompting families to consider alternatives to institutional care, this resource helps determine if community or family-based elder support is both feasible and safe.
