Survival Manual for Elders by Melanie Adair,Joe B. Adair Pdf

This book is written by a team of physicians, nurses, social workers, psychologists, therapists, chaplains, business and legal experts. Their collective wisdom concerning aging and passion for person-centric care with promotion of resiliency and maximum functional potential, shine through every page. The table of contents reads like a list of questions ¿I wish my doctor had discussed with me.¿ Topics such as dignity, health promotion, healthcare choices, advance directives and goals of care, and common symptoms and conditions are accurately and readably discussed and emphasized. The section on levels of care and healthcare finances is particularly helpful in clarifying the maze of choices facing seniors and their caregivers as they negotiate our US industrial, financial, and healthcare complex. Chapters covering medication safety, cognitive and mental health concerns, and illness complications are especially well written. If knowledge is power, the insights offered by this book will be a strong ally for seniors and their caregivers to successfully navigate the challenges of aging, making informed decisions and focusing on individualized goals of care.

Survival Guide for the Soul by Ken Shigematsu Pdf

WINNER OF THE WORD GUILD 2019 CHRISTIAN LIVING BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD "The pages you are about to read may feel like a literal rescue." —Ann Voskamp, New York Times Bestselling author Survival Guide for the Soul is a profound spiritual exploration of God's love—a love that many of us understand intellectually without fully grasping or relying on in our day-to-day experiences—a love that fills our sails with joy and frees us to truly flourish. Many of us are driven by an ambition to accomplish something big outside ourselves. On all sides, we're pressured to achieve—professionally, socially, financially. Even when we're aware of this pressure, it can be hard to escape the vicious circles of accomplishment, frustration, and spiritual burn-out. Drawing on a wide range of sources from Scripture to church history to psychology and modern neuroscience—as well as deeply personal stories from his own life—Ken Shigematsu, recipient of the Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Medal and pastor of Tenth Church in Vancouver, BC, vividly demonstrates how the gospel redeems our desires and reorders our lives. Pastor Shigematsu offers fresh perspective on how certain spiritual practices help orient our lives so that our souls can flourish in the midst of a demanding, competitive society. And he concludes with a liberating and counter-cultural definition of true greatness. If you long to experience a deeper relationship with Christ within the daily pressures to succeed, Survival Guide for the Soul is packed with biblical wisdom and a godly approach to transcend the human tendency to define ourselves by our productivity and success. "Loaded with practical insights and encouraging thoughts, every reader will benefit from Ken's work." —Max Lucado, New York Times Bestselling author

Should I Be Afraid by Judy Hanna Pdf

Should I Be Afraid? Learn what doctors, nurses, and the care community aren't telling you that can kill you, something that is already killing millions of others. Learn how your risk of premature death is increased by 300%, and how your silence sends a message of approval. The facts are exposed about a country's national embarrassment: the unfair and vile treatment of baby boomers and senior citizens. It is a problem of international scope and concern. Facts that have been swept under the rug for decades are exposed in the new book release, Should I be Afraid? Who would have thought people 60 and older checking into a hospital for a minor medical problem could be drugged with dangerous chemical restraints without consent or knowledge? You will learn first hand who is committing these crimes against you, and how these drugs can damage and disable you. Could you imagine that six million people die annually at the hands of those in whom they have placed trust, and the criminals get away with it? Seniors say nobody is warning them about how to cope with or defend themselves against what goes on behind closed doors in their own homes at the hands of family members. What if you could know the types of mistreatment that face one in five seniors today, and be armed with facts that could save your life and the lives of others? This book holds the key to prevention, the key to extending your life, and, the key to having the power to put those who violate your rights in prison. You will be able to determine the answer the question, Should I Be Afraid?
