Not only a testament to Richard’s lifelong commitment to advocacy, it’s also a call to action for systemic change.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eAt a time when nursing home conditions are once again in the media, \u003ci\u003eBe Aware of That Nursing Home\u003c\/i\u003e offers a valuable perspective not commonly available to potential nursing home consumers and family members. What is available is slick, often misleading marketing created by an industry reaping massive profits off taxpayer dollars. Information attempting to influence policymakers is mostly provided by well-meaning academics, data experts, or attorneys who are one step removed from personally witnessing the everyday realities of nursing home environments. Those efforts are repeatedly squelched by the well-financed, powerful lobbyists of the long-term care industry. Otherwise, the tragic, unacceptable conditions in far too many nursing homes would never have happened.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eBe Aware\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003e That Nursing Home\u003c\/i\u003e informs consumers and families as to how today’s nursing homes came about, what tragedies occur daily, and what consumers need to know to protect themselves when choosing a facility. Not only is this information crucial for consumers and families, but it’s also important for the underappreciated, underpaid professionals attempting to serve in dysfunctional and often life-threatening environments.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-converted-space\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Richard Danford","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48286221172987,"sku":"9781636986579","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/9781636986579.jpg?v=1772485768","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/be-aware-of-that-nursing-home-9781636986579","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
