About this book
Reviews
From the book reviews:
“This book is a model of the importance of disaster preparedness for the elderly. … The book succeeds in providing well-organized information, resources, policy samples, and training programs to geriatric healthcare providers across all levels of the care continuum and during all stages of a disaster. It is a useful resource to educate any healthcare professional on the importance of disaster preparedness for the elderly population.” (Carolyn N. Martin, Doody’s Book Reviews, October, 2014)Editors and Affiliations
