Produktinformationen zu „Disaster Preparedness for Seniors (PDF)“

Disaster Preparedness for Seniors: A Comprehensive Guide for Healthcare Professionals outlines specific disaster scenarios for homebound, community, hospitalized, long term care, homeless and aged veterans. Chapters are written by a diverse group of authors, all of whom offer insight and expertise in training healthcare professionals in preparing for disasters. Topics include myths and realities of natural disasters and disaster preparedness for special populations of elders-the acute care elderly, the community-dwelling elderly, home based primary care senior veterans, the immune-compromised elderly, those with multiple and co morbid illnesses, the long-term care elderly, those elderly at the end of life and the effects of disaster on caregivers. A significant portion of the book is also devoted to training, competencies, literacy, cultural competency and resilience in disaster preparedness as well as the role of the academic medical center. The volume concludes with coverage of the management of behavioral, medical and psychological consequences of disasters. Disaster Preparedness for Seniors: A Comprehensive Guide for Healthcare Professionals is an important new volume and will serve as a guide for the development of programs, policies and procedures for evacuation of seniors during various disaster scenarios.

Pressezitat

From the book reviews:“This book is a model of the importance of disaster preparedness for the elderly. … The book succeeds in providing well-organized information, resources, policy samples, and training programs to geriatric healthcare providers across all levels of the care continuum and during all stages of a disaster. It is a useful resource to educate any healthcare professional on the importance of disaster preparedness for the elderly population.” (Carolyn N. Martin, Doody’s Book Reviews, October, 2014)
