Blurb
No one wants to think about getting older. It’s true. At any age, when things are moving along normally day to day and everyone seems fit and well, there seems no reason to think about future problems that your friends and relatives might (and probably will) come across as they age. In fact, it might even seem a little morbid to think such thoughts, or possibly even tempting fate?
Yet there will come a time when you must raise these issues and, ideally, this should be before any problems arise. The Essential Family Guide to Caring for Older People is the ultimate source of information and help for families with care responsibilities. Deborah Stone draws on her extensive experience working in elder care to offer practical advice on every aspect of the field indepth.
Topics range from how to get help immediately, legal information, care funding options, a guide to useful technology and advice on the main physical and mental health issues that affect older people. Plus guidance is given on dealing with social services and ensuring you choose the right care for your situations. Crucially, the book also offers help on how to cope as a carer with practical advice on juggling family, work and your caring responsibilities while looking after yourself.

Mature Thinking
Because you can’t afford to ignore the impact of the ageing population on your business.
In the UK, over ten million people are 65+. The over 50’s hold 80% of the wealth and are responsible for 40% of annual consumer spending, yet they currently receive only 10% of marketing focus.
Mature Thinking can help you reach this powerful demographic, providing expert knowledge of the older market, combined with superior strategic thinking, to help you develop the best strategic propositions for growth.
