When Seth B. Goldsmith published the first edition of Choosing a Nursing Home in 1990, he was unprepared for the book’s success. Over the years his informed, no-nonsense advice has helped thousands of consumers evaluate their loved ones’ long-term care options.

Choosing a Nursing Home, 2nd Edition offers the same expert advice updated for today’s nursing-home and long-term-care environments.

Goldsmith guides the reader through the many types of long-term care options now available, including continuing-care communities, PACE programs, and “aging in place.” You’ll discover how to evaluate nursing homes and interview staff, as well as the various fees, costs, and payment options associated with long-term care facilities.

As with any purchase, choosing a long-term care facility or program requires you to be a careful and observant consumer. Goldsmith’s extensive experience in the long-term care sector makes him uniquely qualified to advise on the potential pitfalls associated with such choices including how to avoid making mistakes and find the best possible care for your loved ones. Take full advantage of his knowledge: this is one of the most important decisions you’ll ever make.
