The lowdown on long-term care- from a doctor with over twenty years in the field.

We worry about placing our loved ones in nursing homes or other long-term care facilities- and for good reason.  In previous decades, some homes were plagued by scandal.  We want to know that our family members will be safe and sound even when we're not nearby 24/7.  Here, a prominent geriatrician Joshua D. Schor, M.D., guides you through the emotionally challenging process step-by-step, covering such topics as:

  • The small- and revealing- details to watch for when touring a home
  • Determining whether your family member needs long-term or sub-acute care
  • Deciding whether assisted living may be a viable alternative
  • Questions to ask about medications, meals and activities
  • Knowing your rights and getting the information you need
  • Special concerns for younger patients
  • And more.
