All through the book, the author discusses preparedness for an aging individual as well as the society in the Indian context. The book highlights inevitable but mostly neglected health issues like depression, dementia, fall, and frailty and provides detailed analyses of solutions that are practicable in low resource settings. It also brings up intergenerational differences and harmony in the context of holistic care of older Indians. .Alongside clinical perspectives, the book uses narratives of elderly patients to dwell on the myriad of problems and issues that constitute old age healthcare. Demonstrating cases that range from the most influential to the most underprivileged elderly in India, the book enlightens multiple caregivers—doctors, nurses, and professional caregivers as well as family members—about the dynamic approach required in dealing with complex issues related to late old age. The narratives make the book relatable and interesting to non-academic readers, w | | 出版日期 | Book‘‘‘‘‘‘‘‘ 2019 | | 关键词 | Open Access; meaningful engagement in late old age; dependency and frailty; caregiver support; intergene | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-13-8938-2 | | isbn_softcover | 978-981-13-8940-5 | | isbn_ebook | 978-981-13-8938-2 | | copyright | The Author(s) 2019 |
