A new book on the often stressful and difficult process of moving into a care home provides a practical guide to help those involved navigate their way through the process. Moving into Residential Care, a Practical Guide for Older People and Their Families, uses material from interviews with older people who have recently moved into care, as well as a review of existing literature, to produce a guide that takes the reader along every step of the journey from thinking about moving into care to finding a facility, making the move and settling in. Co-author Professor Colleen Doyle from NARI says the book uses uses case studies and quotes from people who have been through the experience. She says the book not only prepares for people who are transitioning into care but also increases empathy for families and care staff involved along the way.
