Some of the responsibilities which fall under caregiving are managing the medications, interacting with nurses and doctors, performing household chores and documenting health. The professional care which is provided to a patient within the home is termed as home care. It involves communicating effectively with the person receiving care, managing the hygiene of the patient and the surroundings, and assisting the person in eating a healthy diet. Patients with diverse types of impairment might require caregiving. These impairments can be connected to a disease, advanced age, disability or a mental disorder. This book elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to caregiving and home care. It explores all the important aspects of this field in the present day scenario. This book will help the readers in keeping pace with the rapid changes in this field.
