Description

Caregivers of cancer survivors and newly diagnosed patients are problem-solvers who often need rapid ""on the job"" training, as provided in this easy-to-use book. Whether caring for one's self at home or providing care for a loved one, this indispensable quick reference can help improve quality of care and quality of life. Organized in a straightforward alphabetical format, the book covers more than four dozen critical Cancer Caregiving topics, from Anxiety to Weight Changes, in clear, easy-to-understand language.This book contains everything a caregiver must know, from A-to-Z. It offers simple, informative, and reassuring explanations that can help families. It helps caregivers: better recognize, understand, and resolve the problem at hand; become more supportive in their role; know when to seek professional help; deal with obstacles; carry out and adjust plans appropriately; know when to ask for personal assistance; and take care of themselves - an often overlooked aspect of being a caregiver.This useful book is filled with vital checklists, as well as time-saving - perhaps life-saving - ""What-to-do-ifs"" that can be accessed and acted upon quickly.
