Improving the Quality of Long-Term Care


Book Description

Among the issues confronting America is long-term care for frail, older persons and others with chronic conditions and functional limitations that limit their ability to care for themselves. Improving the Quality of Long-Term Care takes a comprehensive look at the quality of care and quality of life in long-term care, including nursing homes, home health agencies, residential care facilities, family members and a variety of others. This book describes the current state of long-term care, identifying problem areas and offering recommendations for federal and state policymakers. Who uses long-term care? How have the characteristics of this population changed over time? What paths do people follow in long term care? The committee provides the latest information on these and other key questions. This book explores strengths and limitations of available data and research literature especially for settings other than nursing homes, on methods to measure, oversee, and improve the quality of long-term care. The committee makes recommendations on setting and enforcing standards of care, strengthening the caregiving workforce, reimbursement issues, and expanding the knowledge base to guide organizational and individual caregivers in improving the quality of care.

"Teaming With Wildlife" Initiative


Book Description

Excerpt from "Teaming With Wildlife" Initiative: Oversight Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Fisheries, Wildlife and Oceans of the Committee on Resources, House of Representatives, One Hundred Fourth Congress, Second Session Mr. Ashe. Yes. Again, I would hesitate to say that anyplace was not a concern for us, but, you know, in the Fish and Wildlife Serv ice, we have certainly over the last few years have had a major focus on the Everglades ecosystem, as has the whole Department of the Interior. And there has been a marked decline in the num bers and diversity of species there, and that is probably as good an example of any. The Pacific Northwest is another obvious example that jumps to mind. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
