The Carer's Handbook 2nd Edition
Trade Paperback
Essential Information and Support for All Those in a Caring Role
This indispensable guide aims to be a one-stop-shop for the huge percentage of the population who, now or later, find themselves in a caring role, whether that involves shopping for a housebound neighbour, or giving up work to care full-time for a disabled child or confused parent. This book will also help carers care for themselves. It looks at the difficult feelings that go hand in hand with caring, including how relationships are affected. There's guidance on what to do when a carer stops coping, and how to prepare emotionally and practically for the time when caring comes to an end.

Jane Matthews
For the last seven years Jane Matthews has been a carer again for the third time, gaining an even greater understanding and knowledge of what being a carer involves and the challenges it entails: personal, emotional and practical. She has now been a carer for three elderly relatives over 20 (twenty!) years. She has come to realise that the most important message she can give her readers is the importance of self-care.
