FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Author Biography For the past twenty years, most of my professional life as a registered nurse has been spent in the field of Home Healthcare with a special emphasis on "Hospice". Over the years I have been asked time and again, by patients and their caregivers, if there was a reference book or other information available to help guide them through the maze that is our current health care system. I have often guided patients or family members to the resources or professionals that can provide the help that they needed.
