Redefining Aging

Caring for an elderly family member can be overwhelming, but fulfilling life experiences are still possible for both caregivers and their loved ones despite the stress and fatigue.

Author Ann Kaiser Stearns explores the practical and personal challenges of caregiving. She combines research findings with insights and problem-solving tips to help caregivers achieve the best life possible for their loved ones and themselves as they age.

Topics include improving the quality of life for both caregivers and recipients, distinguishing normal aging from early warning signs, understanding caregiver emotions, minimizing distress and anxieties, finding resources to aid caregiving and protect caregivers from stress overload, moving forward after a loved one’s death, overcoming ageist stereotypes, and making life easier for future caregivers. This book will help readers rethink caregiving.
