Readers will learn how to use the framework, apply specific strategies, and seek out appropriate resources that are right for their situation. Personal stories are woven throughout to illustrate the concepts. Discover how to approach any crisis or change in your parent's life with clarity and confidence.

    "It's almost as though you took all my years of training and managed to put order to it. The ADAPT method of caregiving will decrease stress and give great comfort to families in the eldercare world. My fear is that we can't get it out to people fast enough." ~ P.K.
