内容説明

This is the revised and updated edition of a practical handbook for all professionals concerned in caring for geriatric patients. It is intended not only for those already working in this field, irrespective of their discipline, but also for those coming into the field, to help them to achieve a better understanding of the problems of the elderly sick. Incorporating the many technical advances in medical science that have contributed to the care of the elderly, this text examines all techniques in current practice. The authors also discuss the new role of the NHS in providing services to care for the elderly. The original form of the book has been retained, but 10 new case studies are included to reflect the type of patient being seen in two professorial units.
