Dealing with family and individual challenges
The author of a newly-updated Nursing Homes and Assisted Living guide aims to help people choose appropriate care and learn how to advocate for their loved ones in complex care environments. The guide also looks at issues related to assisted living.
Peter Silin, who wrote the first edition of the guide ten years ago, also encourages a deeper exploration of symptoms that may be attributed to being “due to old age.”
We speak with Peter Silin, consultant and geriatric care manager, about the guide book and his website www.elderpost.com.
