It's great to see there's actually a textbook in this topic, and this one is far better than the 150 page test prep book sold by NAB for $130. That is if you want to have a real resource for useful information... The NAB study guide WILL get you through the test, but I found it scattered and incomplete as a resource for doing the job... Once you pass the test.
Got this book to study for the NAB, as it is recommended for studying by the state of kansas. I am just starting to read the book, but so far it has met all of my expectations. It is easy to read and follow, which helps immensely when studying for the state licensing exam to be a nursing home administrator.
Chapters are long and kind of repetitive, but it is very informative and goes into major detail about all aspects of the geriatric including financing.
Covers long term care past, present, and future. Covers regulatory, legal and ethical concerns as well as reimbursement procedures. Lots of challenging and interesting case studies. What more can I say, I received an "A" in Long Term Care Administration.
Very thorough and up-to-date information. Case studies are though provoking. Great resource on management of long term care facilities and issues in long term care.
Book arrived on time and it was a very understandable read. I highly recommend it. If you want to know more about healthcare read this book.
I used it for my class in Long Term Care Management. Great book, good examples, very thorough. It gives you a great overall understanding of Long Term Care organization in US
Rented Book is torn up and all dirty
