Recovery, Mental Health and the Older Person: Providing Care in the era of CHIME, Royal Commissions and the Coronavirus (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780648777410)

"I think this book should be read by anyone going into work with older people." - Elizabeth Stanford, Clinical Nurse Consultant (Aged Care)While Recovery is recognised as an important movement within general mental health, Older Persons Mental Health has not seen as much progress in this area of reform. Are you new to Older Person's Mental Health? Are you trying to understand how Recovery fits in with OPMH? Have you felt frustrated at the lack of reform in the care of older persons, whether involving residential, mental health or general health care? All these roles overlap significantly, and this book addresses all three areas.This is a practical textbook in parts, but it is also a book with a wide scope. Covid-19 has served to magnify the importance of a Recovery-based approach to care of the older person, and the Australian Royal Commission into Aged Care provides compelling evidence of the issues. I hope that you find it useful as you go about the service of these, our precious elders. - MICHAEL MCSWEENEY
