She provides a detailed, yet accessible, description of what the caregiver needs

In Home Hospice Navigation, Ms. Sands assumes the reader is not familiar with the intricacies of the healthcare system related to Hospice. She provides a detailed, yet accessible, description of what the caregiver needs to know to engage supportive care through hospice and to interact with and manage the activities of life as it winds down.  Clearly written, well organized, and comprehensive, this book should be read by anyone who has a loved one with a life threatening illness or by anyone who wishes to open the end of life discussion with their family.

Clear and straight-forward information

This book is a comprehensive roadmap of the many considerations a caregiver must address when a loved one is in decline. It provides clear and straight-forward information as well as helpful links to resources available to assist with many aspects of end-of-life care. I wish I had read it when my parents were in their final years. I highly recommend this book in every respect.
