End-of-Life Care: Clinical Practice Guidelines
Search and download End-of-Life Care: Clinical Practice Guidelines for free There's a quiet revolution happening in the way we die. More than 40 percent of Americans now die in hospice care, often at home, and a vast industry has sprung up to meet the growing demand. Once viewed with suspicion as a New Age indulgence or fringe religious practice, hospice is now a $10 billion a year business and arguably the most successful segment of health care in America. In Changing the Way We Die , award-winning journalists Sheila Himmel and Fran Smith explain what it means to Baby Boomers. It's the first book to take a look at today's hospice landscape, telling the stories of patients, caregivers and researchers, as well as corporate giants that increasingly own this market. Himmel and Smith examine the remarkable shift in attitudes and practices around dying and look at the changes ahead if profits replace a dying-well philosophy as the main driver of hospice. With more than 76 million Baby Boomers starting to turn 65, and with 97% of Americans claiming to want to be better informed about end-of- life care, Changing the Way We Die will be a vital and ultimately uplifting resource for readers facing one of lifes most challenging moments.
