Every year, millions of people take on the role of providing unpaid care to family, friends, and neighbors–a job that can be overwhelming. Caregivers wonder: How do I coordinate the care my loved one needs? How can I get other relatives to pitch in? Who pays for all this? Written in a Q&A format, this easy-to-navigate guide is packed with information, problem-solving and coping ideas, resources, stories, and communication tips. Husband-and-wife psychologists Barry J. Jacobs and Julia L. Mayer have counseled family caregivers for over 30 years and cared for their own aging parents for a decade. They address everything needed to help parents, spouses, or other loved ones–from managing family conflicts to hiring aides to optimizing end-of-life care–in this wise and compassionate book.
