Description

Growing In Age draws on Anne Millar's years of working with older people through nursing, couselling and pastoral care. It covers many aspects of aging:
Society and it's attitudes
How relationships change
Changes and challenges of loss and grief, depression, dementia and dying
Caring for older people in their homes, in family and in residential care settings
The contributions older people make in their community and their legacy for future generations
Throughout, Anne emphasises positive ageing and challenges negative sterotypes
