"A Caregiver's Guide present family caregivers the medical and nursing information they will need in clear, easily understood language. This will help them to understand the journey upon which their loved ones have embarked, to become effective, informed members of the palliative care team and to provide essential physical, spiritual and emotional support. Sharing this journey with a loved one can be demanding but it is also one of the greatest gifts friends and families can share." - Cover
