It Shouldn't be This Way: The Failure of Long-Term Care
Robert L. Kane
The failure of long-term care is the US' embarrassing secret. Robert L. Kane, a physician and gerontologist, and his sister, Joan C. West, tell the painful story of what happened to their mother after she suffered a debilitating stroke and spent the last years of her life in rehabilitation, assisted-living facilities, and finally a nursing home.
