I
rate it a ten out of ten!
Excerpt
taken from “FRIA Wrote the Bible for NY Seniors, Caregivers” by
Saul Friedman, Newsday , December 13, 2003
“Too
many books for older people and caregivers don't live up to the
promises in their titles; this one does. As the preface says, ‘FRIA
designed this book to give all needed information to New York families.
When you face a family health crisis, the specifics are important
and are missing from many general books about nursing homes.'”
Jay
Sanders, Maturity Planning
“Most
of us have experienced or will experience a family eldercare need.
Whether you've planned for it or it's too late and you're in crisis
mode, there's one book that's a must read, Nursing Homes and
Alternatives: What New York Families Need to Know ….For those
families not in crisis or those outside of New York State, you should
read this book too….I rate it a 10 out of 10.”
Valerie
Bogart, Senior Attorney at Selfhelp Community Services, Inc
.
“A
great resource for any lawyer – legal services or in private practice
– working on senior, health or disability issues.”
Jo
Morrison, Reader
“Although
my father was in Arizona, FRIA's guide was a big help. The book
suggested questions I hadn't even thought of asking and what to
do first.”
Jed
Levine, Alzheimer's Association New York City Chapter
“Well
organized and clearly written, this book makes sense of the complex
and Byzantine process of assessing long-term care. It's a rich source
of information for both the lay person and professionals.”
Bernard
A. Krooks, Esq. , Founding partner of Littman Krooks LLP
"In
sum, Nursing Homes and Alternatives: What New York Families
Need to Know is chock full of information on the many issues
facing today's seniors and their families. It is an excellent
resource tool, which should be part of every elder law attorney's
library."
We
would like to hear from you!
