Description

"When the need for a skilled nursing facility arises, you can find yourself overwhelmed with all the decisions that need to be made. Or, you get one question answered and ten more pop up. Which facility is right for my situation? Who are the people that work there and who should I go to for help? What will Medicare cover? How can I be an effective advocate for my loved one? Navigating Nursing Homes will answer all these questions and more! It is an easy-to-read guide with an overview of what the facilities are and the services they provide, the departments, staff, and their roles. It covers the admission and discharge processes, short-term and long-term care, and what insurance may or may not cover. This book skips the medical jargon and goes right to the information that is relevant to you to save you time and frustration, and get the most out of your stay and your insurance coverage. The back of the book provides space to help keep your thoughts and information organized as you navigate your way through the facility stay. Appendixes with additional information and lists of insightful questions will help guide your thoughts when advocating for a loved one."--Amazon.com
