Canada is an aging country and there is a strong possibility that you will, at some point, provide help and support to an aging loved one (if you’re not doing so already …). Learn what to expect, how to manage, and where to find help from former co-caregiver and author, Rick Lauber. Signed copies of Caregiver’s Guide for Canadians available!

Caregiver's Guide for Canadians

A superbly written and well documented book that guides the reader through typical eldercare issues provided by professional and private caregivers. Rick Lauber is a Canadian author who offers a comprehensive guide to care of our loved ones in their "greying" years, including resources, checklists, and worksheets. The author packs this little gem with practical advice such as wills, trusteeships, guardianships, driving and home safety, mobility aids, hospital visits, accommodation, travel, demographic charts, ideas for gifts, special occasions, the best times to visit one's loved one, activities and support groups, finances, and much more. There is also a section on avoiding burnout. This invaluable book is a must for the one in five Canadians who are providing or will provide care to an elderly parent.
