I work at an assisted living facility, and this audiobook has been such a helpful resource that I’ve started recommending it to families of our residents. Even if their loved one doesn’t live with them anymore, there’s still so much in here that’s useful—like understanding behaviours, improving communication, and making visits more meaningful. The parts on caregiver burnout and emotional support really speak to what many families are going through. It’s clear, supportive, and easy to follow.
