Sweet Adeline: A Journey Through Care by Wendy Patricia Slack and Frank Mulville
The true story of a stroke victim as told by her daughter, a qualified nurse, and son-in-law, which probes the difficulties of dealing with the old and infirm in relation to hospitalisation, state services and long term care demonstrating how therapy can be combined with domestic routine. It details their experience of recruiting, interviewing and employing private help in the absence of state services. A concluding chapter for carers draws together the practical information not readily available from other sources. This account is intended to be of interest to the nursing profession, the therapist and to the general reader.Published by Palgrave Macmillan, 1988
