If you enjoy reading, there are some great books that will give you insight into some of our residents and the issues they are facing.
Here are a few I recommend...
Tuesdays with Morrie, by Mitch Albom- Lou Gehrigs disease
Still Alice, by Lisa Genova- Early Onset Alzheimer's Disease
Keeper, Living with Nancy, a Journey into Alzheimer's Disease by Andrea Gillies- Taking Care of someone with Alzheimer's disease
My Stroke of Insight, by Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor- Having and recovering from a Stroke
There are many great books which are fun to read, and educational, and at the same time, can help us understand what our residents are going thru. Thus, helping us care for them.
If anyone has read any others, please share with us!
