Information About
This text focuses on the common needs of the chair or bed-bound person. This book presents clearly what needs to be done and how to do it. There is an accompanying series of practical demonstrations and tutorials that goes with it. The skills taught are not specific to the older persons only, but applicable to the younger chair or bed-bound person as well. Once these skills are acquired, they are for life, and the book can always be a source of reference later on.
