Providing adult home care is a challenge many of us will face. Whether you’re caring for an elderly parent or a family member with special needs, adult care in the home raises important issues that must be addressed:

• It’s not uncommon for home care patients to become bored, frustrated or angry about being stuck inside, or not being able to do the things they used to do. What do you do to cheer them up, or deal with these emotions before they affect behavior?
• How do you deal with a difficult individual, or one who has problem behaviors?
• How do you overcome transportation issues if the person has mobility problems?
• How do you make the home as accessible and comfortable as possible?
• What items do you need before you leave the house, either with the person, or when you leave him or her in the care of another?

CareGiver360^® was developed with these issues in mind. It provides a wealth of information on how to deal with problems faced by providers of adult home-based care. CareGiver360^® libraries include step-by-step instructions for common caregiving procedures, tips and tricks for selecting important equipment, even hints on how to deal with problem behaviors. Included in the subscription is access to Healthwise^® the electronic resource for thousands of caregivers nationwide and a trusted source of online health information used by such sites as WebMD^®.
