Secure TransactionBook Description
Packed full of practical and down to earth advice for clinicians specializing in the care of older people, this book examines real problems that present on a day-to-day basis in the primary care environment. It provides GPs with specific advice and guidance to help them in the management of the often complex conditions that present in older people. Written by practicing clinicians who are experts in the field, this book covers a diverse range of subjects from stroke medicine to incontinence to the role the voluntary sector plays in the care of older people. It includes clinical case scenarios throughout and color photographs in chapters on areas such as ophthalmology and dermatology, allowing readers to better understand the topics being discussed.
Since the book is both easy to read and most chapters are authored by a specialist in geriatrics or a general practitioner, this provides GPs, community and practice nurses, and those specializing in the care of elderly patients with an indispensable resource.
