About the Book

Caring for Those Who Cared for You is a self-help workbook for making decisions about caring for your loved ones. The workbook identifies three stages of decision making a caregiver may go through in making decisions about the care of their loved one. The first stage is supporting your loved one with their care in their own home. The second stage is moving your loved one into your home so that you can care for them. The third stage is moving your loved one into a healthcare facility for their care. How to finance and find a healthcare facility that can address the mental and physical needs of your love can be an overwhelming process. Caring for Those Who Cared for You has worksheets that help the caregiver identify the financial resources of their loved one and how to find the best healthcare facility for their loved ones care needs. Each stage of care comes with challenges that must be resolved in order to ensure that their loved one gets the best possible care. The workbook has various worksheets in it to help the caregiver make data based decisions, so that the caregiver can make the necessary adjustments to their loved ones care plan. It also identifies various websites where the caregiver can go to research information about the physical and mental challenges their loved one may be facing. Throughout the workbook care challenges and possible care solutions are identified. These care challenges and care solutions can help the caregivers with challenges they may be facing with providing care for their loved one. A sample organizational chart is used as a means to resolve care challenges. It lets the caregiver know who they can go to resolve specific care challenges. The workbook also provides recommendations of how a caregiver can make the new room in the healthcare facility feel homelike. It gives recommendations on how to keep account of their loved ones clothing items. Upon visitation with your loved one in the healthcare facility or at home with different agencies coming in to provide support, there may be different care challenges that arise that the workbook can help the caregiver solve in a constructive and data given way. There are suggested strategies to include family and friends in the care process. By including family and friends the caregiver can reduce or prevent caregiver burnout. Caring for Those Who Cared for You is a tool for caregivers that provide support to caregivers in developing and implementing effective care plan for their loved ones.
About the Author: Joanne B. Blanchard, Ph.D., has devoted her life to caring for those who have cared for us and have played key roles in our lives. She earned her bachelor's degree in Home Economics from Cheyney University; two master's degrees from Temple University in Secondary Education with a minor in Urban Education and Secondary Education with a minor in Thematic Teaching; as well as a doctorate from The Pennsylvania State University in Curriculum and Instruction with a minor in Early Childhood Education. She completed Officer Candidate School at the Pennsylvania National Guard Military Academy. For the past 25 years, Dr. Blanchard has been a caregiver to her mother, who died from congestive heart failure, and a sister and a brother who each died from advanced stages of Huntington's chorea. Caring for these family members provided insight into the challenges a caregiver is faced with on a daily basis. Caregiving itself is a multifaceted responsibility that requires a commitment to researching the facts about the medical conditions with which you are dealing, while still maintaining a good quality of life for yourself.
