"The 365-page, large print “tool” book is geared for the home health aide, nursing student, you or your family member who is disabled with multiple medical conditions or is homebound,” says Rhodes. “It covers the human side of aging by allowing the caregiving experience to be more fulfilling for the caregiver and the aging person.
