    Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - A New Hospice Volunteer's Journey to Compassionate Care is a comprehensive training manual written for individuals preparing to serve as hospice volunteers. Drawing on the author's personal experience as a caregiver for two wives through terminal illness, breast cancer and Alzheimer's disease, and his subsequent journey as a hospice volunteer, this manual offers both practical instruction and deep personal insight into end-of-life care.The manual is organized into four chapters. Chapter I guides prospective volunteers through reflective questions designed to help them examine their motivations, emotional readiness, coping skills, and availability before beginning their service. Chapter II provides new volunteers with the essential questions to ask their hospice organization, covering training and support, volunteer roles and responsibilities, patient interaction, organizational culture, and feedback and evaluation processes.Chapter III delivers comprehensive training across ten subject areas: an introduction to hospice care, communication skills, understanding death and dying, grief and bereavement, family dynamics and cultural competency, patient care and comfort measures, spirituality in hospice, ethical and legal considerations including role-playing scenarios and case studies, self-care and stress management, emergency preparedness, and specialized training modules.Chapter IV provides additional resources including HIPAA requirements for hospice volunteers, the importance of end-of-life planning, an Advanced Directive template, key cultural considerations for serving diverse patient populations, and sacred texts and spiritual passages from the world's major faith traditions.Throughout the manual, Personal Notes written in the author's own voice offer honest reflections drawn from years of caregiving and volunteering. These passages are not clinical instruction but one person's account of what this work asks of the volunteer and what it gives in return.This manual is intended for new hospice volunteers, healthcare students, allied health professionals, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of compassionate end-of-life care. It serves equally as a self-study guide and as a structured training resource for hospice organizations.Lawrence A. Yaggi Jr. is a 96-year-old Korean War veteran, retired electrical engineer, chief financial officer and hospice volunteer based in Roseburg, Orego. …

    Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Alzheimer's Disease: It Is Like the Setting Sun is a caregiver's guide written by a man who lived it. Lawrence A. Yaggi Jr., a 96-year-old Navy veteran of the Korean War and a retired electrical engineer, cared for his wife Kathryn "Kathie" through the long progression of Alzheimer's disease until her death at home in October 2023. He wrote this book during that final year of caregiving.The result is neither a medical textbook nor a memoir, but something more immediately useful to families in the middle of it. Nine clear chapters cover what Alzheimer's does to the brain, how to recognize the early, middle, and late stages, practical day-to-day caregiving and home safety, communication strategies, caregiver burnout and the value of respite, building a medical care team, legal and financial planning, end-of-life care and hospice, and the layered grief that follows.What distinguishes this guide are the Personal Notes woven through every chapter, where the author sets clinical information beside his own experience: the door lock that finally let him sleep, the hours spent over jigsaw puzzles, the depression that nearly overtook him, the moment Kathie no longer recognized him as her husband and resisted the most intimate care. He is candid about waiting far too long to ask for help, and about the daughter who sold her home and left her career so that he would not have to carry it alone.Written with warmth and hard-won practicality, this book is for spouses, adult children, and anyone who became a caregiver without ever choosing the role. It closes with a directory of national caregiving, respite, legal, and hospice resources. A 96-year-old Navy veteran who cared for his wife through Alzheimer's disease. Nine chapters on the stages, daily care, burnout, medical and legal planning, hospice, and grief, each paired with a personal note from his own experience. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

    Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Do you believe the people in charge are looking out for you, or for themselves?Rebuilding Our Democracy doesn't add another round of outrage to the pile. It offers a plan, built the way an engineer writes a specification: name the defect, find the cause, and fix it with a credible mechanism, a believable timeline, and a number you can check.Written by a retired electrical engineer, financial officer, and Navy veteran of the Korean War, this book applies a lifetime of diagnosing broken systems to a country that has stopped trusting either party. Drawing on polling data, voting records, and legislative history spanning more than four decades, the author lays out sixteen specific, costed fixes, sorted by what a single session of Congress could pass now, what a governing majority could finish in one term, and what will take a decade of steady rebuilding.The book holds both parties to the same record, unafraid to critique the author's own Democratic Party alongside the Republicans. Its guiding principle: restoration, not revenge - accountability through the courts of law, not payback.This is not a book about who to blame. It is a work order for repairing the country. Do you believe the people in charge are looking out for you, or for themselves? Rebuilding Our Democracy is a plan for 2026 and 2028 candidates who want to prove government still answers to the people, accountability, not revenge. This item is printed on demand.

    Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Alzheimer's Disease: It Is Like the Setting Sun is a caregiver's guide written by a man who lived it. Lawrence A. Yaggi Jr., a 96-year-old Navy veteran of the Korean War and a retired electrical engineer, cared for his wife Kathryn "Kathie" through the long progression of Alzheimer's disease until her death at home in October 2023. He wrote this book during that final year of caregiving.The result is neither a medical textbook nor a memoir, but something more immediately useful to families in the middle of it. Nine clear chapters cover what Alzheimer's does to the brain, how to recognize the early, middle, and late stages, practical day-to-day caregiving and home safety, communication strategies, caregiver burnout and the value of respite, building a medical care team, legal and financial planning, end-of-life care and hospice, and the layered grief that follows.What distinguishes this guide are the Personal Notes woven through every chapter, where the author sets clinical information beside his own experience: the door lock that finally let him sleep, the hours spent over jigsaw puzzles, the depression that nearly overtook him, the moment Kathie no longer recognized him as her husband and resisted the most intimate care. He is candid about waiting far too long to ask for help, and about the daughter who sold her home and left her career so that he would not have to carry it alone.Written with warmth and hard-won practicality, this book is for spouses, adult children, and anyone who became a caregiver without ever choosing the role. It closes with a directory of national caregiving, respite, legal, and hospice resources. A 96-year-old Navy veteran who cared for his wife through Alzheimer's disease. Nine chapters on the stages, daily care, burnout, medical and legal planning, hospice, and grief, each paired with a personal note from his own experience. This item is printed on demand.

Drawing on the author's personal experience as a caregiver for two wives through terminal illness, breast cancer and Alzheimer's disease, and his subsequent journey as a hospice volunteer, this manual offers both practical instruction and deep personal insight into end-of-life care.The manual is organized into four chapters. Chapter I guides prospective volunteers through reflective questions designed to help them examine their motivations, emotional readiness, coping skills, and availability before beginning their service.

    Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Do you believe the people in charge are looking out for you, or for themselves?Rebuilding Our Democracy doesn't add another round of outrage to the pile. It offers a plan, built the way an engineer writes a specification: name the defect, find the cause, and fix it with a credible mechanism, a believable timeline, and a number you can check.Written by a retired electrical engineer, financial officer, and Navy veteran of the Korean War, this book applies a lifetime of diagnosing broken systems to a country that has stopped trusting either party. Drawing on polling data, voting records, and legislative history spanning more than four decades, the author lays out sixteen specific, costed fixes, sorted by what a single session of Congress could pass now, what a governing majority could finish in one term, and what will take a decade of steady rebuilding.The book holds both parties to the same record, unafraid to critique the author's own Democratic Party alongside the Republicans. Its guiding principle: restoration, not revenge - accountability through the courts of law, not payback.This is not a book about who to blame. It is a work order for repairing the country. Do you believe the people in charge are looking out for you, or for themselves? Rebuilding Our Democracy is a plan for 2026 and 2028 candidates who want to prove government still answers to the people, accountability, not revenge. This item is printed on demand.
