Available To Downloads

This is the best reference book for activity directors working in long-term care, assisted living, and adult day programs and the most popular text for training new professionals. This book is down to earth, easy to understand, and comprehensive enough to answer your difficult questions about working with different resident groups, meeting standards, working with team and family members, and managing your department. It lets you see how all the parts of your facility can fit together to make an empowering, healthful, person-centered environment for everyone. It shows you how to provide care that satisfies, and even exceeds, health care regulations. And it gives you suggestions on how to stay sane, at least most of the time. Great reference book with many excellent activities and reproducible forms! The sixth edition includes information about MDS 3.0 and more details on successful person-centered programming in the information age.

The book is absolutely wonderful, but too scarce and much too expensive for practitioners. It apparently is also out of print. I wish the author would print another edition of this spectacular resource.S. Dole

This book was used as a training manual and textbook for a class I took. It was really informative and thorough. I also found a lot of information that I can use in planning activities in my current position. That was my reason for purchasing a copy for myself. It will be very helpful. Great learning tool.

I needed it for a class.There was much needed information.It was in good quality.A must read for all who deal with elderly.

Best book ever for covering this particular subject. Lots of help for anyone working with the elderly in multiple setting types.

This was very helpful in my Activity Director's class & I saved a lot of $$$ buying it from here for a book in PERFECT condition! Highly reccomend this book!

This book was easy to understand I like it and I will be using it for a while

A book for school, what can I say, its not riveting reading but its okay.

As described. Exactly the book I needed. Very pleased.
