In the second edition of her popular resource, Dr. Cheryl still shoots from the hip and from the heart, guiding families to give excellent eldercare without killing themselves (or each other). She is a fellowship-trained geriatrician (UCLA), a former medical school faculty member (The University of Chicago and Northwestern University), and holds board certifications in Internal Medicine, Geriatrics, and Health Care Quality Management. Dr. Cheryl also knows family caregiving; she navigated her mother's 10-year journey with Alzheimer's disease. With this unique doctor-daughter perspective, . Dr. Cheryl organized the book in four sections that explain 1) Why caregiving is so much more difficult today than it was for past generations of caregivers, 2) How to get the help you need from health professionals, other family members, and the seniors themselves, 3) How you can do this while protecting your physical, financial, emotional, and physical health, and 4) assure caregivers that their experience makes them the most capable and powerful advocates for new public policies to help seniors and caregivers into future generations. This section also gives them the information they need to join the fight.
