"Every Year an estimated 2.1 Million older Americans are victims of physical, psychological, or other forms of abuse and neglect. For every case of elder abuse and neglect reported to authorities, experts estimate that there may be as many as 5 cases not reported. Research suggests that elders who have been abused tend to die earlier than those who are not abused, even in the absence of chronic conditions or life threatening disease"

Dear Concerned Family Member,

Please take a moment of your time and read this letter carefully.

If you are currently searching for a nursing home OR currently have a loved one in a long term care facility, then this may be the most important letter you will ever read!

And may even help you save your loved one's life!

I remember the first time I stepped into a nursing home. It was nothing like I had pictured. Yes¡­there were some residents that were in bed and not very mobile. However, I was surprised by how many residents were still very active both physically and mentally. It was an amazing sight to see and a big eye opener for me. I guess I always had the ignorant thought in my head that nursing homes (also known as Long Term Care Facilities) were a place where "old" people simply go to die.

I quickly found that many of these nursing home residents were eager to share vivid stories about their lives. It became very important for me to learn more about them. I truly believe these experiences helped me to become a better nurse and caregiver¡­as well as a better person in general.

As I was attending school to become a Registered Nurse, I volunteered in a nursing home and started working as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). As a CNA, I did a lot of the hands on care of getting residents dressed, taking them to the bathroom, and giving showers. That type of work was physically demanding but the interaction with the residents was very rewarding.

Experiencing first hand the hard work of a CNA, gave me a true understanding of the physical, mental, and emotional demands required to provide nursing care to the elderly.

Throughout my nursing career, I've worked almost every position possible in the nursing home including:

Volunteer

Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA)

Charge Nurse

Nursing Supervisor

Nurse Manager

Assistant Director of Nursing (ADON)

Director of Nursing (DON)

I finally reached a point in my nursing career
(nearly a decade later) when I asked myself, "What could I do, outside of being a nurse, where I could gain a better understanding of the needs of nursing home residents and their families?"

I figured I had done just about everything I possibly could do up until that point as a caregiver.

But despite my years of experience working with the elderly and their families, something was missing. Everything I knew was coming from the perspective of being "the nurse".

I knew how to professionally take care of them but I didn't personally know how it felt to be the family member on the "other side".

I had never had a close family member live in a nursing home. I couldn't possibly understand the viewpoint of a concerned family member because I had never "walked in their shoes".

So, I looked into becoming a Legal Guardian for nursing home residents that didn't have anyone speaking up for them. This opportunity (something I am passionate about still to this day) really opened my eyes to see things from the "family members" side. I was no longer a nurse¡­I was now the concerned family member.

As their Legal Guardian, I am responsible for the exact same things that I had many times before (as a nurse) addressed with previous family members.

Now as a family member, I am personally dealing with issues like:

* Making sure staff is taking good care of my loved one
* Addressing any concerns with the nursing home staff
* And unfortunately, the toughest of all - End of Life Decisions

I now know what it's like to be that family member. It's so much easier to empathize with the roller coaster of emotions like fear, frustration and pain that many of us experience from having a loved one in a long term care facility.

I have learned so much from being a veteran long term care nurse,
as well as a Legal Guardian for nursing home residents.

I now wanted to take my dedication for nursing home residents to
another level.

And that's where this guide comes in.

I realize that nursing homes are a necessity for many families in our society today and no matter what the opponents of nursing home care say¡­
They are here to stay.

I also know that there are a lot of good nursing homes where proper care of the residents is the number one priority.

However, I've also found that there are nursing homes out there with different priorities. Quality care often takes a back seat to the financial BOTTOM LINE.

It is much more difficult than one might think to distinguish between the good and bad. The complex world of nursing homes is something that took me a while to figure out.

I can understand why so many people make wrong choices.

Early in my nursing career, I truly thought as their caregiver, I would be able to sit at my patient's bedside and spend time with them to provide the physical and emotional support they needed or to help them live normal active lives. However, I quickly found out that being a nurse consisted of a whole lot more. There was much more to it than delivering medications and talking to doctors. As I worked my way up into executive roles, I began to see things in another light.

The reality is that there are undisclosed issues like insufficient staffing, poor care, abuse and theft that occur in nursing homes across the country every single day, even in those that the Department of Health has cleared as being "SAFE" environments for your loved one.

Unfortunately, if YOU don't have the insider knowledge about what truly goes on in nursing homes, then your loved one is truly at risk.

Having worked as a Registered Nurse for many years in the nursing home industry, I have been able to see things from the inside that most residents and families just don't see. Now when things come up with MY loved ones that I have to address as their Legal Guardian, I am able to make educated and informed decisions due to my professional experience. I realize not every family member is fortunate enough to have this same "inside perspective".

That's EXACTLY why I've written this book. I want to educate family members on all the ins and outs of nursing homes so that they are able to weed out the good from the bad and to be able to take a proactive approach with the care of their loved one in any nursing home environment.

And¡­the best way for you to protect your loved one is to be INFORMED! After reading my guide, you will know what to look for in a quality nursing home, as well as know what questions to ask staff and what things you can do to stay involved in their lives.

Here is a sample of what I share in the 159 pages of this book:

No matter what your situation is ¨C your main goal is to make
sure your loved one is getting the best care possible!

That's where I believe this book will be helpful to you.

If any of these three things are important to YOU
then you truly need this insider's guide:

You've finally accepted the fact that your loved one needs a
nursing home but have no idea where to start.
You don't have the time, money or energy to waste by moving your loved one from nursing home to nursing home in order to find the best care because you have enough other responsibilities already on your plate.
You want to feel confident about making the right decision that is best for your loved one.

I don't believe that you'll be able to find another nursing home guide book that gives you everything you need to know from a nurse's AND a concerned family member's perspective to help you find the best long term care solution for your situation or to help you protect your loved one if he or she is currently in a nursing home.

What the educators say...



As part of our stock market education program, we teach people to use charts as a way of confirmation to the various moves made by stocks traded daily.



Candlestick charting is by far the most revealing method of understanding the basic moves made each day the market opens. Whilst we have many reference books on candlestick charting, we have found our clients (students) are more comfortable with the ABC of Charting with Candlesticks, by Thompson and Pike.



As an educator, I highly recommend this compact, easy to read, easy to understand and immensely thorough book on candlesticks.
